Think you're cool when you speed?

Just came across this powerful video. Not sure if it's a repost.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3749h_uxS0o

I think all those crazy drivers on the road really need to watch this. People just never seem to realize the severe ramifications caused by their actions....until it's too late.

you can hardly blame the driver when a kid is texting while crossing a street. also, speed is not the only factor that leads to crashes. good video otherwise.

please post it again in the summer so I can be reminded to slow down.

though the video was a bit dramatic, its a good reminder that during the winter season, you should watch your speed and be aware of the hazards around you.

Safe driving in the winter guys!

Very touching.

You can't compare an F1. They have way more downforce which increases their maximum deceleration, even with identical tires.

Neat little vid though. Anyone catch how fast they were going before they hit the cones?

I've only seen the clip where the rather hot looking chick is pinned with the boyfriend. I don't recall seeing the others on local TV.
