What a ridiculous and immature way to deal with an argument. Sir, you are a cad and a bouncer who needs to be punished for this wicked act.

"I wanted us to die together." Uh, that's a pretty obvious "I'm guilty". This guy isn't doing much to help himself.

"Man arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after crashing into ex-wife's car."

A guy called James, once said " let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger; for the anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God." And most of us need better ways in anger management.

He has been watching too many JTV dramas.

Crazy behavior of an idiot totally out of self-control.

Enjoy your stay in a cell.

The only right way to deal with an ex-wife if you have any dispute is to stay away from her,

definitively no personal contact face to face. Look out for a new start with entirely new people.
