You do realize there's a huge gap between the kind of illegal driving most people have done and doing nearly 3x the limit, in town, in traffic, in the middle of the day, and in the wet. I'd wager a lot of people have done some douchey driving in a lot of those ways (aside from the 3x the limit) but very few people are stupid enough to combine all of them.

Again I'd wager plenty of people do, but they choose a much better time and place than this idiot did. The other big difference between this guy and most other people is that when normal people have a near miss they change their behavior. He had an actual accident yet still acts like a massive asshole.
To me the excessive speeding ticket he got after this accident takes away any potential "it was a momentary mistake" and rolls this guy straight into the massive sack of shit category. Most people have the decency to show some amount of remorse after their actions either caused or contributed to the death of someone, but he clearly does not.
