In hindsight, it was retarded and I could have really screwed up mine and my family's lives (if I had hit somebody or something - no insurance coverage). But you could maybe make the argument I had a bit of a hope of being a reasonable driver.

On the other hand, if you are 15 and drive 175km/h and don't understand that that makes you an OBVIOUS target and you ARE going to get busted, then you CLEARLY aren't "almost" mature enough to drive whether you are in grade 6 OR 10.

lol just because I didnt type They are, and I actually noticed it when I was commenting, but thought w.e.

and LOL you thought you were Smart because you drove at 15 with no license and speed limit PLUS 10%?!
I dont even..

your smart enough to know what you did was illegal because you were scared to get 'caught' I ll give you smart on that, but what you did was plain dumb.

like you even stated that driving at 15 with no insurance and license, if anything was to happen your fucked.

you think this kid that drove 175kms, didnt know this?

what difference are you from him?

I've done a lot of stupid shit when I was younger, as i'm sure most of us have. It had nothing to do with our parents or them controlling us.

My parents were pretty strict and as such, I am very respectful to my elders, my superiors, and to pretty much everyone I meet. I have never caused problems in school, do more house chores than most of my friends combined, and most of my cousins are compared to my sister and I in regards to how respectful and helpful we are.

That being said, I've done a lot of stupid shit. Including sneaking out when i'm not supposed to, driving fast in their cars, and other countless stupid things. The kid is 15. Now, I don't condone his speeding, as that is really dangerous. But, kids do stupid things because they lack experience and perspective.

Though, in my experience, most parents are not strict enough or provide the correct guidance. So I kind of see where you're coming from.

nope "his" alone wont fix that grammatical nightmare, but of course it was on purpose

xilley 04-25-2013 05:22 PM

fuck me. fail me gais.

GabAlmighty 04-25-2013 05:28 PM

I've done that... In Shuswap in the Volvo.

duy- 04-25-2013 05:33 PM

well back to the topic...
there's a certain amount of common sense this kid is missing, yes some or many of us might have taken our parents car for a joyride when we were younger but to go 175/h is a little more than pushing it. definitely hope there's some major punishment so he can hopefully learn and gain some life experience out of this, or maybe a beating if hes asian / south asian.

oh yeah they never mentioned the race.
I m guessing caucasian? hence Cadi.

inb4 imagine this was an asian kid driving bmw m6

dinosaur 04-25-2013 05:56 PM

who the fuck cares what race he is...a kid is a kid.

dinosaur 04-25-2013 06:16 PM

Alright Xilley...since you disagree with me and think it is relevant, please explain.

MindBomber 04-25-2013 06:23 PM

I sympathize with the kid.

At 15, I might have stolen my parents car to get pussy. The kid's brain was not the decision making authority in his body, we all know that.

Is that because you don't have a legit reason.... just like all of the fails you give in the white chicks thread?

I feel rs is going easy on the kid cause its a cadilac cts and not some rich mofo fag china boy in his parents r8 (with an N of course) racing with his porche ferrari buddies with N's.

I feel for the kid, 175 is a bit fast though, but hey at least it was for pussy, and thank glob he didnt hit anyone.

duy- 04-25-2013 06:54 PM

feels like I'm beating a dead horse here, but I think what xiley was trying to get at was that the media portrays a rich Asian kid who's speeding down a highway a lot worst than they would a white kid? or even revscene for that matter as previously mentioned^
it's probably easier to sympathize in this case because the kid in question is somewhat relatable to some of us here? 15 year old kid does crazy shit to get laid, yup...
whereas we can't relate to having parents with tons of money, buying lots of expensive cars, going to foreign countries to show it off, speeding, not eating proper amounts of meals because looking like Nicole ricci is sexy in our motherland.

In my opinion, the ease is not because of race or parent's wealth.

175km/h is extremely fast, very likely lethal in an accident, but we've all made a comparable mistake once in our youth. The essential consideration is that we all learned from it, growing into responsible productive adults who drive safely. RS is in an optimistic mood today, expecting this incident is an isolated one time thing like it was for us.

The similar incidents involving high end vehicles have not been isolated incidents, they've grown very routine. The pool of offenders is not learning, they're returning to the same spots over and over and expressing pride at what they've done. It's impossible to be optimistic on these events anymore.

People like to say, it's the wealth of the owners of the high end vehicles that causes such strong criticism to be directed at them. That's not the case, though. If, let's say, BCHondas members were routinely involved in identical incidents to the high end cars, I'd wager, the reaction would likely be the same or worse.

Support:
RS chastised the speeding kid on a motorcycle.

They should suspend the parents' licence, force them to retake the tests and attend parental classes. On top of that, a hefty fine of around $25,000.

Regardless of the kid's race, or even if he's too old for it...
time out - YouTube
