Easy to say cretins etc, but the end of the day it's someone's kids.
I'm pretty sure all of us have got away with a fair bit over the years in one way or another.
Not good.
True, but you could say that about anyone who commits a crime really no matter how heinous. No one deserves to lose their kid to something like this, but these numpties could easily have wiped someone out who would have been just as innocent.I'm pretty sure all of us have got away with a fair bit over the years in one way or another.
Not good.

Although not many of us have driven at 90mph through a 30mph area which truly should be 30, whilst uninsured, no licence, and having been drinking and taken drugs.I'm pretty sure all of us have got away with a fair bit over the years in one way or another.

They were young did something stupid and paid the ultimate price.
I couldn't help but feel a bit sorry for the passenger at the end, he may have been a bit out his face but even he realised that the driving was way OTT for that particular bit of road and was begging his friend to slow down.
Thankfully no one else got caught up in their stupidity.

It is so easy for people to look at this and think they are stupid.
Drugs were key part of this tragic situation and were they in state to realise right or wrong.
I think the passenger did just before accident but the driver had lost his grip on reality.
I feel sorry for the family because we do not know the history of the two young men accept we see a snapshot of there existence via the press.
The aftermath will have massive effect on the responders to the accident and we should spare a thought for them.
As some people have said they have done some stupid things in there life and these two have paid the ultimate price and by luck they did not kill or injure someone else

The passenger was the owner of the vehicle. He allowed the his mate to thrash his car through a built up area while unlicensed, uninsured and off his face. He is equally responsible.I couldn't help but feel a bit sorry for the passenger at the end, he may have been a bit out his face but even he realised that the driving was way OTT for that particular bit of road and was begging his friend to slow down.

99% of us have done something really stupid at one time in our lives which could have ended up being terminal but for the Grace of God and that is not the point here.
The point is that their parents have bravely allowed this video to be shown to try and prevent others from doing the same thing and we need to show more respect to these families who have suffered a great loss
Those parents spent years of sleepless nights when these lads were babies, all those school runs, all that parental love, all those holidays, all those little corrections you give as a parent to try and steer your kids in the right direction. You can only do so much and then you have to let go a bit as they become adults.
To see all that disappear in one second.
It is heart breaking and I think we all should be very grateful to these parents for just making us think for second the next time we floor the throttle for a bit of pointless bravado.

Close thread.

Was it a 172 though? It doesn't look very fast? Looks more like a shopping model being driven as fast as it'll go.
Oh dear and I drive a 182! Good spot. Must have had a fart can on it as it was definitely louder than i'd expect?I still can't understand how these guys can be brought up in such a fashion to think that doing drugs and driving is a good idea.

Reminds me a little of 'David's Story' from last year -
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xq2xStb0R-c
Scary video - you can feel the fear as that car cuts across him. Though absolutely crazy to be doing 100mph on a busy single lane road with junctions like that, the video tragically proves just how dangerous that is - especially on a bike.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xq2xStb0R-c
I wonder though, at what point does the speed become so high that the court does not find the driver at fault? Is there such a speed? If he had been doing 150mph would the court still have held the car driver responsible, what about 200mph? Surely at very high speeds, even with full care & attention, seeing the motorbike coming as it comes out from behind a nearby car would have been near impossible.
