Young lads in very fast cars...
I was caught speeding going double the limit when I was 19 - total F@cking idiot for doing it (was on a dual carriageway that was reduced to 40 a month earlier but still - total nob)
Not as severe but was almost bound to happen, I was not mature enough to have a fast car at that age. I got 5 points and spent 2 years in an old diesel estate totally crapping myself if even nudged the speed limit - taught me a lesson, hopefully these lads will learn too....

If I got caught doing that I'd consider myself lucky if that was the result. I personally think it's a fair charge but people have been jailed for less.
Agreed - a total mixup of their way of lives is what is needed to prevent this happening again - then the media can report it and hopefully others will take note...LukeSi said:

It's idiots like these who are used to justify the use of mobile speed traps. Getting them off the roads is fair enough as they're unlikely to have any observational or forward planning skills and 144mph on a busy public A road is out of order. The trouble is, in some people's minds, everyone who slips over the limit is tarred with the same brush as drivers like this.
Big deal. 144. So wbat? The Germans do this every day. Some of us oldies on have exceeded this by loads in the days before everyone got brainwashed into thinking it was bad. Some of us may have exceeded this last year. And lived. The shock. The horror. Speed isn't always dangerous, crashing or getting caught is. Actually I now reckon getting caught is more inconvenient.
