This Speeding Bentley's Huge Crash Shows Unforgivable Stupidity
Brace for a serious brown trousers moment, because this horrific accident would be enough to turn any normal human into a poo cannon.
After pulling around a traffic-calming island in May 2014, 74-year-old Tim Edwards’ Ford was totally destroyed when a Bentley being driven at ridiculous speed through a village centre hit a kerb and bounced, still travelling at high speed, straight into him.
The terrifying footage has only recently come to light after all the legal proceedings were finalised. The black Continental GTC is said to have been travelling at up to 85mph along a narrow 20mph street on the outskirts of Amersham, a town in the English Chiltern Hills.
We don’t need to tell you how serious the impact was. Poor Mr Edwards was unharmed, but shocked (as you’d imagine), but the [insert expletive here] in the Bentley came off worse. The coward, 46-year-old Richard Plum, fled the scene but was traced by the blood his busted nose left on the airbag.
He was sentenced to 14 months in jail and banned from driving for four years and seven months. Even going by the date of the crash back in 2014, he’ll still be getting the bus by the time he next goes Christmas shopping.

I just wonder how some people get their driving licenses… Like dafuq? If you want to pass the license (in Briatin) the clean way you should get at least 43 out of 50 questions right on your theory test which isn’t hard a.f. (the questions about awareness are the easiest) the hard ones for me would be the ones about the documents… And then the actual driving test itself… So let’s say this guy passed, but what in the world was he thinking doing group B in a tight village street with a boat? That car could’ve not turned or braked no matter who was behind the wheel… Well, I see stupid people everyday, I ve even seen a bus full of people catch fire and the driver not giving an f. about it, but this is unseen stupidity… I’ hope his license was taken away… They say money can’t buy you driving skills, but with this guy it’s money can’t buy you a brain… And then he fled on foot 😂😂😂. Fokin idioot…
Yeah…even with uk laws you have imbeciles like that… god I’m glad most Indian cars are slow 😂
This right here
Gold
i don’t get it
What actually scares me even more is Ford Sync declaring that it can’t make an emergency call… imagine if it were an accident which was more intense…sheeesh
You’ve got a valid point. Meanwhile, I’m trying to justify why you’ve received those downvotes…
The Bentley drivers punishment wasn’t harsh enough, he should been locked up for 5yrs and never be allowed to hold a driving licence for the rest of his life.
and buy a brand new Bentley to the guy he shoot, juste for the compensation…
Plum by name, plum by nature.
That’s almost as shocking as that totally unnecessary lanes merging,
Holy sh*t, recognise that road! Not a nice road even at legal speeds, full of potholes and arsehole drivers. Don’t remember this in the local papers though
I recognised that road as well. That’s the only reason why I clicked on the post.
When people have more money than driving skills.
Every online racing lobby ever
Didnt he technically have right away lol
