A good case for the belief in karma.

I agree. What goes around, comes around.

Since we can now assume that this pilot had insurance, it will be
interesting to see how his insurance company feels about willful negligence.

While an EMERGENCY landing on a public road is not illegal, I have always
thought that the practical consequence would be that the police would impose
a non- judicial penalty by requiring removal of the wings and trucking to an
airport. "There is no such thing as an emergency takeoff." This raises the
question whether this pilot had received a "clearance to takeoff".

Happy landings,
