I saw an almost identical accident with a junker Monte Carlo who was in a passing contest with another car at about 50 mph. After they passed us, he pulled up on the right of the newer car, floored it and swerved towards it, trying to scare the driver. He over corrected and ended up in a swerve oscillation, a spin and a 20 mph smack into the median. Luckily he missed everyone else by inches. His car would't start so he had to push it off the road in front of all the stopped traffic. Total instant Karma.

I laughed, I cried, I only wish I had some popcorn and a slow motion replay button.
