Idiot Road-Blocker Exits His Car While In Reverse, Gets Knocked Over, Blames Another Driver

What do you do when you’re stupid enough to get out of a car on a hill while it’s still in reverse, causing the car to spring backwards, knocking you over? That’s right: blame the stationary car behind you.

The portly gent in this footage hosted on the wonderful Dash Cam Owners Australia Facebook page has stopped his Honda CR-V in the road, double-parking perhaps while waiting for a parking space. Nonetheless, he’s blocking the road. He has no indicator on; nothing to give people a clue as to what he’s doing.

Traffic has to squeeze past him ahead of the camera car, despite road markings showing it’s illegal. Then the driver decides to pull away – before stopping again. The camera car gives a horn blast full of WTF, Bruce, at which point the idiot leaps out of the CR-V while it’s still in reverse. He knocks himself flying, is frankly lucky not to be squashed under a wheel and then, after his car smashes into the front of the camera car, blames the guy in the latter.

Sorry, mate, that one doesn’t compute. I’m sure the dashcam footage was very helpful to the insurance companies involved.
