why not? cause you're not young? lol.
how the eff did these sub-22 year olds get these cars? and why the eff do they have them? if i were rich, i'd tell my kids to have fun driving their mazda5 hand me down until they could afford their own car. at very most i'd get them a gti because they're chick magnets.

most of us have been young and stupid with our cars, but this is a whole new level. I also read about this this morning and i was pretty disgusted. I'm disgusted at the parents as well who'd give a under 20 yr old a lambo or ferrari...
and i think most of us are conscious of the effects of just throwing money at the kids just because you don't want to deal with them or what not, but i have a feeling these kids come from families of money that go back a few generations so their parents had money thrown at them too so they don't know how to parent their kids other than just throwing money at them... but then again, i may be generalizing, but heck, the parents should be charged as well... it's kinda like giving a 20 yr old a gun and say have fun!

If there were 12 cars along a highway all going around 200km/h, wouldn't that just be flow of traffic? lol

It's because they had no proof other than witness accounts, so they could only charge them the maximum of driving without due care. If they were properly clocked driving at over 200km/h, then they would get a harsher fine.

yeah, the fine was under $200. driving cars that are worth well over 100k, i think $200 could be found between their couch cushions.

lol yeah that's true. maybe their parents will just suspend their debit card for a couple hours, then they'll really be roughing it.
