I've been to jamaica. I've seen how they drive. Doesn't surprise me a damn bit.

for christ's sake they have billboards that say "undertakers love careless overtakers."

the crotch rockets pass everything and ride up the center line. always wondered what happens when they meet up around corners....anyway people pass around corners, into oncoming traffic, etc. As for those that assume it was stolen (apparently because the guy was black) jesus you are racist... didn't you even ****ing notice that everyone in the picture was black and its not in our ****ing country? I think some of you need to cut the slits in your hoods a little bigger.I saw plenty of jamaicans with cars nicer than you will ever own.

Also, my vote goes for a prelude. Are those 4 lug?

Almost looks like an older celica. Don't thinks a prelude because of the orange in the tails.

  • More than any age group, teens are likely to be involved in a single vehicle crash.
  • This age group makes up 7% of licensed drivers, but suffers 14% of fatalities and 20% of all reported accidents.
  • 14% of all deaths due to motor vehicle accidents are teen drivers.(that's 16 to 19)
  • Of teen drivers fatally injured in automobiles, more than 1/3 were speed related accidents.
  • Statistics show that, as a group, drivers under age 30 have more accidents per mile driven than the general population. Thus, young drivers are charged higher rates, as are families with young drivers in the household.
From various insurance company and stat government sites.

Folks, I remember when I was young and while I consider myself reasonably intelligent, I also had an attitude that "$hit can never happen to me". That is a common misconception that only changes with years of experience.

Now I am an old fart and still don't know much better, :D, but have slowed down a lot and drive much more responsibly.

yeah i heard about that accident in NC where the kids were in a Suburban on dounuts getting chased by the cops at over 110 on back roads and they ran into a tree killing all five instantly. they said the driver was probably scared cause he was just 15 with no permit or anything.

If you know what the law is... why break it? If you break the law willingly then you deserve whatever happens to you... Too bad those people end up only hurting more people than just themselves...

Four (or more? I lost count) accidents and zero injuries later, I'm a-okay!

So I guess I was right when I was 18 -- I -am- pretty invincible.
