People don't understand what actually happens when you get knocked out like that. They think it is like the movies. To actually get knocked out like that means you took some serious head trauma. Like in the hospital for 6 months trauma. That guy will go to prison, with the extra charge of the UKs equivalent to using a car as a weapon.

    Saw a movie in theaters last night, saw the head-trauma victim waking and talking soon after, coherently. They even continued to be the love interest for the person who knocked them out. Friendo, you are waking up in agonizing pain for the rest of your life and your ability to regulate your emotions was deleted. You're not shrugging that off.
