Jackass. I wouldn't have stopped either, I would have been laughing my ass off at his idiocy. If you aren't 100% certain of where you are or exactly what is over the next hump you are attacking on the wrong side of the road, don't be a tool.....

Idiot or not I would have stopped to make sure everyone was unhurt.
Just because you think he's an idiot doesn't mean that you should not help.
Maybe he hit someone else, maybe someone in the car was injured, maybe you have been driving like an asshole in the past, If you had an accident you would want him to stop and help you.

Good luck changing my mind stranger. If he obviously twatted something big time or hit someone else, of course I would stop, possibly to beat him with his own bumper and help the other people. Besides, look at the video more clearly and you will see that he only hurt some growing corn by the look of it......

I don't go around expecting that if I drive like a jackass, others will come to rescue me from the end result of my stupidity should I make a "booboo". Help anyone else I took out in the process, chances are I deserved whatever I got. Anyway.

I remember my mate being raced by someone ''youth'' who understeered straight into a lamp post. My mate turned the car around just to drive past laughing at the hoody.

I drive like a tool sometimes but only on roads i know like the back of my hand. These cars are too quick to be foolish

like the funniest thing i have ever done, i had a big turbo celica GT4 ST205, tuned to about 350bhp (it was new so a long time ago), this yoooth in a mk2 16v golf gti was glued to my ass, like an inch (i was just cruising, having annihilated him a couple of times), Q'ing for the Fartford tunnel i got through whooosh and slow for the tunnel when i see chav boy come flying up behind me at max leptons, lane 2 of the tunnel was stationary so i pulled over and the next thing i see are parts of golf gti flying all over the place, chav boy had slammed into the stationary cars, i pissed myself for a week on that one
