Remember the 18yr old girl in the porsche who crashed?

Look, I\'ve seen some sick shit on the Internet. I don\'t get the obsession with these pics though.

I think its because the girl was good looking and the circumstances surrounding the pics. I dunno. I just searched because I was curious because the article had such a graphic description.

Actually for me it was the fact that they were banned of the Internet that really got me going, In other words it amplified my curiosity.  When I finally saw the pics they were really no big deal, but interesting none the less. The really positive messages the pics sent to me was cementing in my mind of the consequences of erratic driving and how dangerous cars can be when misused. Those pics really make you think. Which brings me to my next point.

I know in Europe with the autobahn(Germany) etc.. Drivers are legally capable of taking there cars to very high speeds. What kills me here in America is that if we agree driving way over the speed limit is totally irresponsible and endangers the lives of innocent bystanders, why then do most people dream of owning a Ferrari and modifying there cheap ass honda\'s into 100,000 dollar Vehicle when they know full well that driving them as they were intended(speeding) is potentially involving innocent people into dangerous life threatening situations.

I mean i wouldn\'t care if people race there cars on closed/controlled roads and kill themselves that\'s there business. What pisses me of is the lack of respect of other people\'s lives.

there\'s no need to post them here. grow up.

and why is that? I think it would serve well as a stern reminder to people of the consequences of driving like an idiot.

parents should have taken care of that.
if not?  they failed at their jobs.

Germans not only have these specific roads. They also know their limits. They are self concious. They know where and when to speed unlike in most countries. Germans have the lowest accident rates in whole Europe if not globally despite the speed. Its a matter of culture I think.

For example in Cyprus we dont have tha appropriate roads (the surface of the island also isnt appropriate for having huge flat roads) and some people like spending the shitloads to modify their cheap cars to make them faster. We have lots of accidents because of this and the careless driving. 4X4 and high cars are the most appropriate for my country. Still they insist on getting low cars that run like crazy.

A single rock or bumb in the road will kill you and the majority of roads are like this here

In Italy I ve also heard that they drive like crazy too. You might be in a highway going 120km and the driver behind you is continuously in your ass forcing you to speed more in fear he will hit you behind

while we\'re on the topic of countries with bad driving...i f-in hate going to mexico because of this shit driving that goes on. The big red sign that says ALTO apparantly means \'keep rolling by in hopes that someone will stop.\' Im happy as hell the few times i had to be in traffic there I wasnt driving and also in an SUV, or else i probably would have died.

Can\'t stand northern mexico (never been south of tijuana-ish area)
