Sounds like he should have let the dog drive. It had its ***** together more than the owner it's stuck with.
I had a similar experince last summer when out for a drive with a buddy, both of us in our '72's. We caught up to a turbo diesel Dodge with dulies on it. It had a lawn mower, a Big Wheel, some garden tools, and all kinds of other crap in the back. His dog was in the extra cab and we could see the poor thing flying back and forth accross the window as this idiot flew around the corners trying to stay in front of us.
Yes we were playing Walter Rohrl. We do that alot. So sue us. So was he. No, we did not back off after feeling any sort of guilty pangs of conscious, thinking it was our responsibility not to encourage this idiot to continue. He was actually pretty good, and it was great good fun to watch him absolutely thrash his truck like that. He damn near lost it several times. Would I have felt responsible in some way? No; he's a big kid too, perfectly capable of making his own decisions. I'm sure he got home, cracked a Bud, and told his ol' lady how he just spanked a couple "Poorsh's" in the twisties. Good for him; he had fun, and so did we.
