Well actually you can help it. I like probably many others on here have mates living in the local graveyard due to stupid things done with a car some at fault, others completely innocent.All the road safetly campagains in the world can not change the person that gets behind the wheel which is you me and everyone else . Its each indiviual that has to chage there attitude . I have an Sti yes its a fast car but I don't go racing cars I don't drive like a madman everywhere I go. The only time I use the power is when I want to pass out a car safetly. Every uses there car in differnet ways. some bring them to mondello and enjoy getting the most from there car in a safe manner. Your attitude "well what about all the other videos on youtube" don't you understand it only takes ONE mistake driving to kill yourself or someone else. Anyone can have an accident it happens but driving at high speed you have less or no chance to correct yourself.. I remember an interview with the late Richard Burns and he was asked how does he drive when he's not rallying. He said he drives at normal speed same as all the rest . He said just cause Linford Christie is a sprinter don't mean he runs to the shop all the time".Its a about attidues changing and I'm glad in a way to see the disgust that this video has gotten on here it does show that people don't condone it and the fact he put the video up for all to see just shows how big of an idiot he is .

4 cars on the road?..... Donegal gridlock that is dave :lol: :lol:
And look at the attention the kid in the M5 got there a while ago, wrapped around a tree with 3 or 4 of his mates thinkin he was king in his daddy's car. I wouldnt say that these stories get no attention anywhere else, I'm sure they get plenty of attention in their own country. They are just not publicised here, why would they be...

I'm not slaggin donegal, I love the place, got a few mates up there around killybegs. We always used to head into letterkenny, some craic ye can have up there without being told by some d1ckhead bouncer that "you've had enough tonight" and then being dragged out by your ankles while being told that I'm barred. Dublin huh, whatcha gonna do

some craic up there, there all mad as hatters! not a hedge in the county that doesnt have a huge car shaped whole in it!
but because of the madness up there i was nearly taken out of it by one idiot in a celica, i was driving around a blind corner (at the 80k speed limit, it was a wide corner but blind) and this fella came around the corner half on my side half on his side, he was in full understeer with the tyres squealing and was heading straight for the edge of a pretty high cliff! he narrowly missed me and the car caught grip just before he came to the edge! thats what i could see in my mirror anyway, and it wasnt his driver ability that made the car catch grip, just pure luck. madness altogether

yeah could have used some of that luck the other day :lol:
lads none of us are innocent on here,we've all broken the speed limit at some stage whether it overtaking or jus acting the maggot but i agree with Gerry that its ppl's attitude that has to change, and that no tv ad is gonna stop lil boy racer from slowing down until he himself is in an accident,as for our friend in the vid,its only a matter of time b4 he tries it again and next time he might not be so lucky!

And aren't we giving him just a bit too much attention? He's still out there thinking he's the cool dude and we're all on here having a heated debate and arguing at one another...there'll be another one along soon enough...unfortunately he's not the only one like that but maybe if we took less notice and didn't get as upset over it the next fella mightn't think it's as funny...seems to me a lot of this is done on you tube " looking for notice " and we gave it to him

nothing that was said in that ad bout him seems to be true not rush hour? or a public road? and dnt think any kids r gona be running out in front of him there. as yous all said better doin it in your own time on a clear road thats what hes just done tryed it on a clear road no cars act in front of him ther. we all do it at times n im sure its a 1 of so i dnt seem to think anythin wrong with the video cause we have all done speeding before and no matter what speed it is 55 or 155 you can still kill people only dif is none of us have videoed it so bit of an over the top reaction to this video. we r all alowd r own opinion dnt think any of us should throw digs at each other like
