Well said Fair play on the roundabout but on the motorway with traffic behind is sheer flipping lunacy

All it would have taken would have been a small miscalculation or one of the other cars to see it and panic brake and there could have been a nasty accident

why is it ok to do it round a roundbout? still could have hit someone! still could have knocked a person off a push bike or anything!

at least on motorway the people behind could see what he was doin and slow down/act accordingly....if a skyline comes sideways round a corner and you dont see it ya fucked!

your joking right? act accordinly by doing what? slowing down on a wet road and hope the cars behind dont go in the back of them? his actions are potenlly putting other peoples lives at risk, he doesnt even have lights on so isnt even very visable to other traffic
I think the point of the roundabout comments is due to actually there not looking like its very populated, still not 100% on the main road but at least if hit fucks it up its only his life he puts at risk rather than innocent people

so wheny ou slow down on the motor way you always have to jam the brakes on!? you can slow down slowly if a wanker infront finds it funny to go side ways down the motorway its only if he loose's it that you will have to jam ya brakes on!

edited to say

if someone jams you in the back it wioll be cus there not paying attention and therfor more dangerous than the wanker goin side ways!

If they panic brake in weather like that it is quite possible they may skid and leave their lane and hit a vehicle in the neighbouring one. The braking may also cause a shift in weight making the back of the car go light and swing round. Accidents with braking aren't just people running into the rears of other cars

mate in them conditions on a motorway it would be hard to see that cock as doesnt have lights on, not eactly going to be simple to slowly brake really as chances are you will see that car a bit late really, plus its not exactly a routine slow stop if someones skidding over 3 motorway lanes is it, so of course there may be car panic braking, which may lead cars behind skidding or worst case senario going into the back of ya, its easy to say here looking at the vid but i do lots and lots of motorway driving daily and have seen accidents been caused for a lot less,

Sorry mate - you're on your own there.

At best, he was doing 20-25 mph in that drift on the roundabout, and not a sole in sight. (not that I condone it, but in comparison to the mway etc)

On the motorway, speeds look double that at least, and there are clearly arctics behind him, in the wet.

Total cock jockey.

I know what you're saying, but the point is, if you're going to break the law, and drifting on the public highway is definitely doing that, then at least do it so that you endanger no-one but yourself.

Read underneath the video...people say that it's for a magazine shoot, and the car's lights are off for camera people to take photos. And it also says that the lorries are there to stop it hitting the public.

no difference to when people go crazy down the Ace cafe etc cars going as fast as fuck etc and there are loads of people about in a very confined road etc SOME people are and CAN control their cars and I'll say to them but THEN you'll always find coco the clown/clowns who think they CAN drive that's when you have to think about incidents etc!


looks to me that who ever was driving in this vid CAN drive pretty dawn well and IF some numb nuts wants to have and accident cos they cant stop in time etc then they should go learn how to read the road and keep their distances from cars etc infront and allow for the road's conditon.

Purple fiesta- No

Find it funny all the fucking mental stuff most people do in their fast cars (All go think of the speeds youve all done on public roads... ) and then they slag off this vid.
The crazy shit you see people do at meets/cruises/convoys are far worse, but gets applauded.

Whats the bets if that was a "famous" person off here in a RS500 or summat we'd all be hailing him as a god...

Find it even funnier that the poster of this thread only edited to say the guy was a twat for doing it AFTER everyone else started slagging it off
I need to find a bandwagon jumping pic


Ive seen a lot more dangerous and out of control shit done on motorways every day as people cant drive for shit, and then they VERY close to other cars, not miles away like that.

It was a total fix anyhow, 5am, no traffic, and the lorrys were in on it, just there to block the way and to look good on camera.

Hed have to be a proper shit drifter to lose a straight line swaying drift like that anyhow.
I know of a few corners on M-ways that are just begging for some 100mph+ drifting...

Good vid BTW

guy's i don't think its so as bad as your making out. its plain to see the lorry's are aware of him and are with him/them and their job is to hold up the traffic so joe public doesn't get caught un-aware. ask yourself why and artic is in the 3rd lane of the motorway (risking being done for it) if they weren't in on this.

its still a crazy thing to do
