Photo 3 of 5

To appreciate just how foolish this stunt was, you need to understand the location. The man was stopped near Peyre-en-Aubrac, close to the Col des Issartets — the highest point in France’s motorway network at 1,121 meters above sea level.

It’s Russian roulette with a German steering wheel.
