How is that classed as dangerous driving? Admitted to going there when it was quiet and used spotters to ensure there wasn't any other vehicles coming.
I get annoyed at these sorts of case, so someone has taken precautions yet gets handed a 12 month ban and 150 hours of community service, yet you see scrote after scrote on Roadwars who genuinely put the public in danger (sometimes actually harming them) yet just get a suspended sentence.

Genuinely amazed he got a ban for that Pretty much everyone with a rwd car has at least once had the back end out

Crikey that's harsh considering the measures he took.
Maybe a slap on the wrist was due. I'd ban somebody if they were doing it past a school at 15:30 or something, but not with spotters at 5am on a quiet road

Not even solid white lines around the corner.
I like the caption on one of the pics '...with a passenger sat alongside him causing skid marks across the road'
Pretty grim of his passenger if you ask me.

Mental. That road is covered in tyre marks. I once wheelspun up most of it in my corsa.

The Facebook comments are great, most revolve around cyclists and motorcycles coming around the corner and being killed but they all completely disregard the time, spotters and radios.

I was waiting for the bit where he goes through the granite wall and then spends the rest of his life eating through a tube and shitting in a bag, but they must have cut that bit out
