Retards like this give a bad name to the mature 17 year olds. This pisses me off, stupid shit like this, but i do feel bad for the families, and the people who this kid has hurt from being a dumbass.

I am pretty lucky to be alive considering some of the dumb shit I have done in my car.
But all you can really do is try to learn from your mistakes.

Yea. Also saw it on the news.
The Mustang and the Camaro came to a known dangerous intersection on Old Keene at high speed and hit a construction type truck. The truck did a 360 degree turn and smashed on another car waiting at the light.
Witnesses said that the kid in the Mustang was screaming out for help and for someone to remove him from the car that had sparked under the hood.
It's sad. Specially with large sport cars like these V8s. They are ment for a drag strip and not a rally course. At least he donated.
