too bad in this forum people rather flame, instead of taking the problem seriously.

its odd to see most of you boys slaggin off the cops , pretty much about everything, then this guy speeds (not uncommon) and you all back the cops ... Laughing

its wierd what people believe in sometimes Sad

the reason behind this is the psychology, they wish they've got the guts to do these kind of things, but they don't, so they flame people who does it, but when it's their turn to get caught when the law said they're doing something wrong, they start whinging, does flaming other people really gets any problem solved?

you guys are pathetic in getting your priorities right. Do you really think we have a speeding problem? yes 160 in a 80 zone sounds dangerous, and you wouldn't do it because you'll get caught and penalised.
It's a stupid decision, and if there's anyone around other than themselve, then they're outright irresponsible, and that's all it is. Compared to rape, murder and robbery, it's nothing, it's not delibrate harm.
It's a psychology problem, and that's all it is, IRRESPONSIBILITY. If the government really views this as a problem, they'll spend more in education, tougher on licensing.
Parents and peers' got as much responsibiliy as anyone else, and as a youth, there's a psychology thinking, that if you never try it, you'll never know. As a youth, most of them wants to try 180+km/h just to see how it feels, for a lot of people, this wish must be fulfilled. They want to prove to themselve, prove to their friends that they can do it.
I'm sure a lot of people have done it, and probably less than 1/100 of them have ever got caught, as part of the driving education, they must let these people try these dangerous acts somewhere, just to fulfil their wish, because if you never try it, you never know.
No one at 17-18 year old would think, oh yeah, there's ashpate ripples on the road, the car will become unstable at high speeds, maybe some dog and cats will jump out then I'll lose control when I try to swerve, maybe there's a pothole in the ground then my steering will get affected.
Will you really process that much information before you take each individual action when you are 17 year old?
But too bad the government is more interested in revenue raising, and when something bad happens, they start pointing fingers at SPEED, SPEED KILLS, which in turns gives them more power to install more cameras, more speeding fines.
But do we really have a speeding problem? How many people drive 30km/h above limit each day and how many of them get killed???
You hear a couple of skylines wrx wrap around some poles every couple of weeks, but that's out of how many cars that arrive safely to their destinations at the same time period?
And how many poor souls got raped, killed and robbed in the same time period?
How many people die of hospital mal-treatment?
How many people suicide due to social problems?
How many people die of drug addiction and overdose?
How many people die of lung cancer because of smoking?
If you know those figures, we definately don't have a SPEED problem, we have a government GREED AND IGNORANCE problem! And we also have a general public IGNORANCE problem as shown in this forum, flame on!
