stupid- to be driving that fast (especially approaching an intersection)  
lucky- to be alive  
weird- to run from the scene and hide in bushes for 6hrs.

Thrashes his super nice expensive M3 and just goes and buys a shitty expensive Escalade. What a douche rocket throwing money away like that.

Spent a couple hours in jail? I hope he has some court dates also for fleeing the scene of an accident along with several fines as well as his liscence revoked, but who knows maybe he will pay his way out of this completely

“I pinned 140 in 4th, brake checked anticipating the light 1/4 mile ahead of me and lost control.”

If you are doing 140mph anywhere near a stoplight the police should take your car and crush it.  
If you lose control in a M3 by “brake checking” you should be in the car when they crush it.  
If you have a passenger in the car and do something that stupid only your legs should be in the car when they crush it.

brake check ? is this 1935 or some shit ? do you not expect the brakes to work

brake checking a new car is like locking the doors so they dont fly open

he gets all pissed off in the thread because people were saying he should be dead … but its tru

the least i can hope is that they didnt get all the glass out of his skull and his friends like to skull smack him … and the glass cuts from the inside every time… glass caught under your skin hurts like a bitch and can take years to grow out
