This is superb and more people need to be like this on the road. The way the guy is calm and addresses what he witnessed is

seen it before but i still can't believe how cold and heartless someone can be.

i hope she got the book thrown at her.

the guy deserves a medal, although speeding through a village and ovetaking that red escort when not trained in pursuits is also very dangerous.

i understand why he did it though.

I'm not sure it's entirely the right way to deal with it, call the police, yes, but he broke nearly as many traffic laws as she did!

I couldn't find the original new 1 series thread so this will have to do since I spotted it here.

This doesn't get any better looking does it.

I would like to think I would have done exactly the same though, as he instigates, he believes the guy is dead and knew nothing otherwise than this in his head. I'd like to think you would try to hunt down a 'murderer' given the opertunaty like this.

I remember when that first showed up. The original video was in prestine quality and all the original poster seemed to talk about, was where he'd purchased his dashboard camera and how impressed the police had been with his superior video quality.

I don't know what to think, but originally it sure had all the qualities of a viral marketing video.
Can't seem to find anything to confirm or deny the incident, nor the original video for that matter.

He had the evidence on camera and her numberplate, why chase her down and speed in a residential area? One person getting mowed down in enough for a morning.
