I wonder if the driver got cited.
Probably not.
You see him walk up to the tow truck driver while looking back at the A/H driving off.
He was there to help prevent a rear end collision to the stranded vehicle.
If he left and somebody rear-ended the truck, it's lawsuit time.
If another unit was in the area, maybe they could have stopped the SUV and cited it as can be done in CA.
Maybe Dick learned a lesson, especially if he had family in the car. He probably got away clean, except for his tidies, if there is a God. He was very lucky. It's hard to tell from the video but it didn't look like he counter steered to correct the skid.
But the driver is OK.
Even if the video at the site wasn't stopped to show how close the SUV was, you knew instantly it was the suspect vehicle as it came whipping around the corner compared to the truck ahead of it.
