It was on December 12 last year that Marcellus Otero was arrested in Sydney, Australia, after crashing his car.
The 19-year-old’s sports car, model Subaru BRZ, was equipped with a so-called “dashcam” that documented the car’s journey.

Revealed by its own video
According to The Sydney Morning Herald the police reviewed the video footage from the car after the accident, and Otero was then charged with a total of 48 counts of traffic violations.
The fact that there were so many charges is a result of not only looking at video footage from the accident, but going through the archive for both November and December.

Raced against another car
Otero is accused, among other things, of having driven a car without a valid driver’s license, skidding, driving carelessly, and having driven over 45 km/h too fast.
At the time of the accident, he must have been racing against another car and driving 130 km/h on a 60-lane road.
When a car swerved out of a driveway, he was forced to make a sharp evasive maneuver, lost control and crashed straight into a telephone pole.

“Gotta stop driving like an idiot”
Otero, who suffered only minor injuries in the accident, reportedly told reporters outside the courtroom that he intended to plead guilty to some of the charges, but not all.
– I have to stop driving like an idiot, said Otero to SMH. – I am grateful that I did not hit anyone or that someone was injured.
It is currently unclear what the punishment for the 48 traffic offenses will be, but the Australian authorities are not known to take those who break traffic rules lightly.
