You take a lot of risks getting behind the wheel of the car. Not every driver is competent or responsible. Some are downright malicious and negligent. It can be infuriating to see a hit and run accident where the driver does damage and immediately flees the scene.

A motorcyclist who goes by Dick Danger witnessed a Mercedes hit two cars in San Bernadino County, California. The Mercedes driver quickly took off in an attempt to escape being held accountable.

After getting the license plate information, the motorcyclists took off after the hit and run driver. After seeing the car swerve around the accidents he just created, he was concerned that the driver was intoxicated. He was afraid of more people being injured by this criminal Mercedes driver. Danger made the immediate decision to follow the wrecked car to ensure he was caught. He followed the hit and run driver for 57 miles before the Mercedes finally was forced to pull over. The motorcyclist’s body camera recorded the entire episode.

Video of the case and the driver’s capture is below. His excuse to the police officer is pathetic.

Without Dick Danger following the hit and run driver, he may not have been captured. Worse, he could have hurt someone else. While some are calling Danger a hero, he said he is simply a “motovlogger,” or motorcyclist who records their ride, who was trying to do the right thing.

Thankfully, this driver will be brought to justice. Danger’s body cam should provide solid evidence of him fleeing the scene and then lying to the police officer.

Hit and run drivers don’t have any regard for their victims. It’s always great to see them being held accountable. Click here to see another hit and run driver who was followed by another driver!
