It was intentional, he merely cut the wheel and pulled the handbrake.   Watch the video again.    There a large element of skill there.

Not from where I was sitting.

SUV screams by on the right ... then hard breaks for slower traffic.

Econo car screams by and doesn't realize the SUV had to break hard.

Econo car slams brakes on causing skid and then steers to the left to avoid possible rear ender with SUV ... which cause the rear end to slide to the right and the car to the left.

Econo car tool ... very lucky.

Looks like he hit the breaks and lost control.  There was no parking lane where he parked and he had no visibility when the sliding started.  I dont think he would pull a stunt like that without being able to see if there was on coming traffic.

I'm assuming that was a friend videoing it. Why couldn't it have been the dash cam of a squad car?

You know this because you were riding with him, correct?    :rolleyes:

And you know he did it on purpose because you were riding with him, correct?

What I see is a guy gaining the van ahead, you see his brake lights come on (which wouldn't happen with hand brake application) and he starts to slide. 

Again, no skill, just luck he ended up next to the curb.

I'm not saying he was intentionally parking, but recovering from a skid like that, without crashing, requires a combination of skill, experience and luck.  

If he had recoverd he could have continued on down the road.   The only thing driving that car was physics.
