He was very calm and polite to the guy who caused him to crash. I don’t know about you but I would be pissed the hell off.

You would have been grateful to be alive. Plus that guy may have had cocaine on him and just wanted to get home.

I could see being pissed if the guy ran off, or denied he was in the wrong, but he apologized.

He fricked up. In a major way. What good is getting angry going to do? The damage is done.

Why every driver needs a dash cam. I was ran off the road fractured my spine. Cops were worthless as all cops are ( I know the page is full of bootlickers). They didn’t even bother to try to find the guy. But it at least proved to my insurance it wasn’t my fault

But thats funny..ironically on worldstar.

When 2 white guys have a legit issue, "no anger, let's just take this proper and calmly". Probably wore a non-manditory suit to school.

Dude may have known he was kinda speeding though it seemed.

The British are so... British. Their reactions to everything are so understated. Stiff upper lip.

Maybe the car safety regulations in the UK are significantly different from the US. That car doesn't appear to have side-curtain airbags. The front airbags don't go off if there's not a front impact. That car doesn't even seem to have ABS. He slammed on the brakes, causing the car to swerve to the right, and then he over-corrected to the left. It looks to me that the lack of ABS is what caused him to veer into the wall.

First of all. He was driving on the wrong side of the road.. Im joking..

Those English folk are different. If that was your average American they would be fighting and it wouldnt be until someone else passed by until it is broken up, the dude who threw the first punch would end up going to jail because the other dude pressed charges on him.

I don't think I have ever laughed out loud to watching something so unexpected before.

It's probably not even all that funny. I was not expecting that reaction.

I was wondering about that.

Also, the guy with the dash cam was going pretty fast, in a vehicle that seems to have terrible brakes. The other driver was apologetic, and that might be my natural reaction too, but I hesitate to assign fault here.

Well, they were both driving on the wrong side of the road so neither had a right to be winking the nod.

Looks like the guy who crashed was speeding and other guy just passed. He could have just hit the brakes and avoided the collision.
