So, this happened in Australia. And apparently, the man responsible doesn't give a damn.

A Northern Territory man decided to take matters of revenge into his own hands and drive his monster truck onto a love rival's black Holden commodore. On Monday, he boasted about the carnage on Facebook, which led to his arrest.

Police confirmed to the NT News the man has been identified as Robert Turner, 29, who has now been charged with criminal damage, driving unregistered and uninsured. Turner was also a learner driver, but did not have his learner plates displayed and was not driving with supervision.

According to the Facebook post by Turner, the incident stemmed from a love triangle between himself, his ex-best mate and his ex-girlfriend. As the drama unfolded on the local NT Performance Cars page, viewers strapped in for the Jerry Springer-style ride, dropping hilarious memes while spectating.
