Moonrock with dark wheels should narrow it down?

I bet he'll take a bit more care next time! Could have ended very differently.

How long do they get to own up before you spill the beans?

OK what do we have, not a lot from the quality of the video

Silverstone
Dark wheels
Glass rear screen
Not JDM
Pre facelift
Not de-badged

Not sure but have those arches been rolled?
And it could be the light but the wing mirrors look black.

If anyone recognises the location it could help.

Are we getting warmer AE?

The video serves as an example to how easy things can get unstuck. Should leave the driver to accept their miss fortune without a witch hunt, best to let this one slide.......lol.

because you refered to the driver as "a tool" making the asociation more likely to be male.

Just a bit of fun I wouldn't expect AE to spill the beans and the video is just to poor to identify a specific car. The only way we will know is if the driver fesses up.

But I think what really stopped that being a bad accident was the front wheel touched followed by the back both left tyres were against the verge at the same time so the car was stright when it left the road, if the front had hit first and dug into the mud it could have been game over. So a very lucky escape and hats off for getting it back on the road.
