Try saying something like this can't happen at 60 mph after whitnessing it at 50.....

Then you find out later on during dinner from you rmom that there was an accident off of I75 that claimed the life of a young teenager.....winds up it's the accident you whitnessed (my mom is an Xray tech).

You can keep telling yourself accidents only happen to teens with bad luck, excessive speed, anf fast cars, but in reality, the same things happen to experianced drivers going the speed limit....

I didn't say you couldn't get hurt bad going 60mph Jonny... What I mean is that something like this was contributed to the high amount of speed involved.  At 140mph any vehicle will turn into a heap of twisted steel and have a high prob. of fatality.

But you're failing to realize a 15 mph impact is enough to kill both driver & passenger...

60 mph has a high risk of probablility and turning a vehicle into a pile of scrap metal as well.

And no, 15 mph in any car CAN in theory kill you. Hit your head just right and get an anurism and you're pretty much f**ked.

Oh and my bro flipped his girls rented Ford Taurus hitting about 80 got hit by the side and knocked down a light pole . He left the hospital the same day like 2 hrs later and he wasnt wearing his seat belt him and his friend.


why is he still alive you might ask, my dad went to church because something inside of him (God) told him something bad was going to happen to my bro and he went to church and prayed for him and he's at his friends house right now i think that down side is that he has no licence and has to go to court.

people are crazy to go in speeds of 100+ that is just crazy. Save that for the track. Street racing is wrong, even though I don't really see the problem with speeding up fast to the speed limit. if there is no traffic. But yes street racing is illeagal save it for the trakRedline5th37989.5278703704

What that essay or w.e he wrote isnt how most real raers street race. What he is talking about is ricer racing not the street racing that most people do. Anyone with a fast car and anything for a brain sets up a race at a place where u can block it off easily and noone is usually around. Alos u do it on off nites like a tursday nite instead of saturday night where all the idiots are out. This kid is only telling you half of the street racing scene. Not the other half where people are more safe and careful about it.

It's not 1/2 and 1/2. Far from it. More like 7/8 1/8.

Those pictures were from a middle lined 1/8....
