i just got news today that a very good friend of mine had 3 other people in the car and thought id be 'cool' to get high and go race down a main highway.. well guess what, they caused a multi-car accident and one or more of them is dead.. so anyone that drives under the influence or goes need for speed style on the roads is a COMPLETE ASSHOLE.. stick to racing on the strips..

That truly the most careless thing I've heard of. We have 2 issues here:

1. driving while under the influence
2. racing

When driving, you need to think about other people on the road. You can drive your car into the Grand Canyon for all I care. You're only injuring yourself. Something stupid like this will cause pain to innocent people.

I get scared myself seeing those "flybys" on the freeway. I guess my old age has caught up to me. 23 year young and never the wiser.
I always wonder how these kids could do it, I get scared shitless going 90+.

Wow, that's a pretty impressive combination of stupidity.

Still sorry to hear.

Why just B18 powered Civics? What about all the other smart asses out there?

I'm sorry to hear about that
Thanks for the reminder about the consequences of reckless driving. Maybe some NFS wannabes will get the message, and take it to the strip or the track.

Good Riddance is all I can say. They endanger their lives, fine, they endanger the lives of others, fuck them I have no sympathy for them. They might be your friend but they are another statistic that didn't use good judgement. I feel sorry for you for losing friends and them making you go through this but I honestly don't feel sorry for the overall losses of their lives. It's just one less reckless driver on the road.
