Leave the asshole remarks to your self, this is two peoples lives in the balance, one of which was merely along for the ride. Like others have said, it is unneeded in this thread.

Don’t mean to hijack your thread because this is sad and unsettling (people need to learn their limits…and he better hope alcohol wasn’t involved or he won’t be driving for a VERY long time).

BUT…

This is what happens about 3 times a year on my turn (I live right on the turn):

Yes…he flew over the guard rail and down my lawn.

seriously… couldnt have said it better.

i drive like an asshat sometime, but the first time i take a turn i do it at a safe speed, say recommended is 35, i try 35. Next time down the road i try 45, and so on until the tires start to squeel, and i can’t hold any further. Hammering turns you don’t know seems like it would end like this.

hope he recovers though

Dude the car from what I saw under the hood, what ive seen/heard in person, the car was a stock STi, missing a radio and rattled like it was going to fall apart.

The kid beat the ever living piss out of the car everytime i saw him dirveing it. There was also once occasion he tried to be cool around the turn comming of heldenburg by dunkin donuts, spun the car around and then proceeded to curb the shit out of it, then turned around and drove off looking like an idiot

btw, still no word on his condition…

:idiots

fail.

if he was drunk i hope he does die. fucking darwinism at its best. i also hope the other victims sue the ever loving shit out of him (this all hinges on if drugs/alcohol were involved)… otherwise… i think he just deserves electro-shock therapy to smarten him the fuck up. driving fast and taking chances is risky with only yourself in the car… add more human lives into the equation and its downright fucking moronic.
