I'm not ashamed or sorry about it, regardless of what people like you will say. And I know that just about everyone on here, with the exception of like 2 people, speed, or drive unsafely, or do silly things in their cars that would absolutely land them a ticket and/or a trip to jail had a cop been around them.

Which is why I asked what I did. Because in my honest opinion, a short burst over 100mph on a vacant road in the middle of the night is something neither I, nor about 99% of the people on here would care about at all. Heck I bet a good beer that majority of cops wouldn't even care even if you did show them that. I bet a good case of beer that it would be extremely difficult to get that guy in trouble even if you did go through all the trouble of being internet detective and bringing that all to court.

Just sayin.
Did you not watch the video? He's flying past cars on the freeway in the lane next to him, losing traction and hitting 150mph. I'm not going to argue. **** that and **** the people who do that. End of the ****ing story. I don't give a **** if you go 100 on an empty road, that's not the same situation as this asshat. Doing something spirited is not the always the same as being reckless. This is an obvious case of recklessness. It only takes one person like this to ruin many lives, and you won't know that pain until it happens to you, then maybe you'd feel the same way I do.

Sending in his info with a report isn't going to hurt anyone, and who knows, if the cops don't give a ****, it's on them, but at least someone tried.

However, if someone is constantly posting videos of excessive speeding, driving wreckless and ultimately doing crazy things potentially putting others on the road at risk aside from any passengers, then I can see D.A.'s office pursuing legal action. Ultimately what I'm getting at, using the evidence online as the base for a citation or more is much more trouble and money than it is worth to the police and the court. Especially given the limited resources they have available already.
Thank you

Without an officer witnessing it, there is nothing they can really do.I think your best bet is to report it yourself with what information you have to the local CHP or sheriff office and they may just knock on his door and say they've had reports if his reckless driving and to knock it off. That happened to a friend if mine that drove fast through our neighborhood, but no ticket came from it, nor could it.

I'll be there today and bringing a few non subies. Looks like I missed some crazy stuff in the last few pages. I lol'd so hard and Vlad is pretty much correct. Must be that time of the month for some people.



All times are GMT -7. The time now is 10:14 AM.
