" 

He wanted to go to meet two friends of his sister Bridget who were on the beach. "We were a little euphoric. It was the joy and happiness to be with my sister after two years of separation ... " Hair in the wind, Brigitte and Didier Chabaud did well 'enjoyed'.

Also roll over the sand, the driver tried his gig in the water until the meteor is immobilized by sand, because "it is not a 4X4," he concedes.

The moment of pleasure was short-lived. People who were on the beach of Mon Choisy, in the Tuesday, January 17, around 16:30, did not hide their deep anger. They tried to stop the oncoming fireball straight for the beach without worrying about the safety of others, in water or on sand. Imagine what might have been the impact of the convertible, with a 5000 cc engine, and launched into a mad race against a poor man.

immobilized car, the public flocked to the occupants to be fairly beaten. A real lynching. Didier Chabaud Challenge shows that it bears more bruises on the body. BMW will not be spared. To express their rage, the crowd is up to scratch the body. The fifties was hot. It is not soon forget the dirty quarter of an hour he spent. "I was afraid of my life was hard in 10 minutes of lynching. My life and my sister were in danger ... "

Didier Chabaud escape the mob by the intervention of the police. "I have a special thought for the police officers who have left, my sister and me, this faux pas ..." 

How did he get there? Didier Chabaud said, humbly, that "it is the fault of a few drinks too ..." "I drank a few glasses of beer only. I did not do harm to the public or trauma. I made a mistake and I was afraid of my life. I'm sorry that things have become so incredible proportion ... " 

To his critics who accuse him of putting the lives of others in danger, especially that of a baby, the businessman retorted: "I have always worked in the recreational sector. I have no problems with children. Instead, my job is to give them leisure, "he insists.

Didier Chabaud acknowledges having "demolished in just 10 minutes." This crazy trip, he is not ready to forget it."I selected a beautiful lesson is the first and last time this happens. I will work hard for it, 'says he. 

He admits he will have to give up alcohol as a result of health problems, it quickly loses its case after only a few drinks. Recall that the breath test performed Tuesday revealed the presence of 121 mg of alcohol in the blood of the driver. Transported to Mapou Court Wednesday, he was released against bail of Rs 10,000 and an acknowledgment of debt of Rs 100 000. Didier Chabaud was defended by Me Siddhartha Hawoldar. "
