^^50/14 was barely a forum member at the time of the incident; or may have even just been lurking. He only chose his username due to the events of that day.
Of course the nuts and bolts of each incident are different, but what you had was someone being an irresponsible twat, and causing injury to 2 other people because of it (thankfully not more, but it could've been). But friendships blossomed in the long run. I think I've heard a similar story about a drunk driver (irresponsible twat on the road) causing serious injury to someone, but then also becoming firm friends with the victim, and changing their errant ways.
Theft is a crime, so is drunk driving, so is riding brakeless/without due care and attention.
