everytime someone says something about doing 33 in a 30 or 100 on a motorway everyone slates them. Hipocracy reigns supreme on corsasport

Can't slate him for doing 100mph, sure 90% of people off here are guilty of doing that speed on the same sort of roads at some point, specially when they were 17/18

He's unlucky. I feel sorry for him. Rileysport is 100% spot on. Glad he said it before I did.

speaking as an innocent party in a 80mph head on last xmas, from which i still have not fully recovered, caused by the same disreagard for road types/conditions/other motorists/speed limits, coupled with the fact that i can honestly say that none of my driving is in the same league as 100+ on a single carraige way, i think im ok to call the guy a twat!

Everyone speeds but there is a time and a place!
Fair enough if I want to drive like a tosser and end up backwards in a ditch then thats up to me but its when it involves other innocent road users that it becomes stupid and unnacceptable!
Ill put my house and my car on it being the Saxo drivers fault! The 4 people in the car coming the other way could have been a family and they could have all been dead! The guys a tosser, end of!

I cant believe that is the result of a 170mph head on.
The bonnet would have been like a mangled mangle thing at 170mph impact speed, and why the flattened nearside rear?
And most importantly of all why post it on the internet?

I cant slate him for doing 100 but i can say hes an absolute dickhead for hitting someone head on. ive done 140+ on single laned roads but actions speak louder than words and i havent caused anyone to crash or crashed myself. time and a place 
In all honestly it is stupid doing speeds like that with, bans etc. but in my eyes people can do what speed they choose and where ever they like, aslong as the only person they hurt is themselfs.

Well for example no cars on the road, your not going to hit someone head on. there are loads of things to take into account but im not going to list them all.. there always a risk in doing high speeds. even highly experianced trained drivers are risking death at high speeds.. nothing is 100% safe.

Then your doing 10 years in prison for death by dangeous driving. a bit of bad luck i suppose but your own fault for doing them speeds...
if u went through life taking everything into account you wouldnt leave your house!!
EG: dont want to go into town becuase i might get hit by a bus etc, dont want to fly the plane might crash etc etc .
See where im comming from? but you can help these situations by taking certain things into account..
Hope ive explained it well enough to understand..
By the way cyber, im in aussy, took a Commodore V8 SS series 2. out the other day. its my mates. he said open it up if you want.. jesus this thing went to 240ks in seconds... alot faster than my veccy V6 
Didnt kill anyone though

if you ready the right up on it, you will relise the front of the car came away. thats why its in bits.
i people say he shouldn't of been doing a 100mph but everyone does it.
his excuse was it was 2am and tbh i'm sure that you have all gone faster earlier in the day. well part from the 1.2 guys "only playing"!!!!

you are mad then. being 2am is no excuse as that doesnt mean you are the only person on the road does it! I agree that every now and again I do speed, but not exessively and especially not on any other roads than motorways and dual carriageways. and only if the traffic is quiet and I can see that nothing else is around, if a car pulls out ahead of me or joins the arriageway I will slow down.
this guy had no respect for anyone else and he hurt 4 other innocent road users, he is a prick of the highest order.
