Im not preach to ya about serves ya right driving at stupid speeds, think some of us need this fright and kick up the arse to get a grip of our driving habits or bad habits. Good job ya ok but bet ya think twice about doing that kinda speed, I have been there like you and it taught me to drive with more care. If cops give ya hassle tell em a rabbit jumped out on ya

but what if you had hit someone?
its right for people to give you a slating on here, so other people will learn how much of a tit you look speeding around. fair enough its ok to drive quickly if its safe (if there is such a thing) but pushing your car to the limit and not being able to handle it is just plain stupid.
not having a go at you, weve all been there and had a scare once or twice, but hopefully you will learn from this and so will others who read the post.
am i starting to sound old?
