Great Mother's Day gift for his Mom.

We tell these kids all the times that street racing is going to get them killed, and its even more dangerous on the Bridges. When will they learn?

*sigh* I don't have any comments on this. Illegal street racing has been covered too many times. So, to answer your question, they will never learn.

How sure are we that this was street racing, and not just a high-speed EZ-Pass (or whatever it's called down there) fuckup? Usually news reports don't hesitate to disclose that racing was involved in shit like this.

Either way, sucks for his family.

Edit: after clicking the myspace, maybe emo kid suicide? Maybe his mom died recently and mothers day took him over the edge?

High Speed, Wreckless Driving. These Kids get on the bridge and hit 100+ MPH all the time. Trust me it wasn't just some EZPass fuck up.

At least you're more mature than the bunch. Most kids probably see your car and think "oh it's a neon and it's got all this shit put on it, it must be fast!" and try to race. I get the same shit because of my pillar gauges. But it's whatever.

Ya. Same here. I remember I was rollin down one of our streets downtown and this old school Mustang pulls up next to me. My car's lowered, has the lip kit, he sees my gauges and shit and points down the road 'cause he wanted to run me. I just laughed, as he bolted down the street. lol. oh well.

No, they never do learn.

I saw reports about this kind of shit when I was 15 and I'm still seeing them today at 52.

I think you are all wrong, some teens WILL learn that street racing is retarded.

Unfortunately it will be a split second before their melon explodes from contact with the tree in front of them after losing control of their car during said race...

Street racing doesn't kill anyone. It's the sudden stops they should outlaw!

because Clarkson has a dry sense of humor, can drive incredibly well, and makes fun of American Cars, why else.

Even though he did name the ZR1 his car of the year

I used to live in cape coral and it was crazy around the bridges or any long expanse with no traffic lights. and they try to pin street racing on any accident involving a "sport compact" and a teen. about 2 years ago a kid hit a school bus in I think it was a stock Hyundai and they pinned it on street racing than went on to say some kids spend over $200,000 on souping up their cars! so yeah a little fanatical reporting going on there!
