To show his skillful performance, he moved the camera around to show the road ahead and his steering.

He then posted it to YouTube and waited eagerly for the applause. Strangely, the video was watched by Spain’s police department Policia Nacional’s who were not impressed.

According to The Local, the police later asked on Twitter whether someone recognized the ‘brave’ man.

Policia Nacional has some 950000 Twitter followers hence there was a greater possibility of being recognized. It only took 13 hours for the police to get responses.

In February, at the time of the incident, the Policia Nacional’s social media manager explained to the Local that its Twitter platform has many followers because they try not to be too institutional and very boring to avoid people losing interest.

Maybe, this fearless driver was also trying not to be very boring. However, he selected the wrong medium for publicity.
