considering the sveerity of the accident, the car stood up well and all those airbags seemed to do the trick, ceratinly the curtaion airbag stopped the drivers arms flailing through the open window

Not the kind of road you want to run out of talent on. Prat.

Hopefully his insurance company will see vid and tell him to f off, and (assuming wherever he is has a similar points system to us) the law will give him three points for every time he crossed the solid lines.

Still, according to Watchdog last night, his engine was likely to suffer cam chain failure anyway, so it saves him a "£5,000 to £10,000" bill. Ford: fix or repair daily/Lotus: lots of trouble, usually serious and now BMW: Blow My Wallet

Its clear that the guy in front knew the road - and the BMW driver didnt . My guess is he thought the other driver had bottled it on that corner , and over-braked........clearly not the case

That's not a squeaky bum moment.
That's a "thank god I am still breathing, i think i will goto church on sunday" moment.

Watch out for the car in front nearly falling off after about 5 seconds into the video. I don't they have a brain cell between them.

Is it me or were they taking some very odd lines on that road?

That's going to need tracking.
