Ive never spent so long reading a thread. Took the time to read it fully today from start to finish after you brought it to our attention a few days ago.
Really has made me think about how easily things can go wrong.
Shame it started to go down hill over the last few pages though with the arguing 
Guy has got my respect for coming out with it and i really do agree that it should be published somewhere as i think it will have a strong affect on people that really do need to be inflanced by it 
Drives supercharged Tec with torque

Took about 2 hours reading that, well worth the read. The bikers account sent a big chill down my spine though.
Page 12, 5th post down.

I have a friend who went down in similiar circumstances. He drank and drove his nissan skyline and crashed the car killing his passenger. He was sentenced to 18 months in prison. Hes out now though, and so much more appreciative of the world. The guilt will never go away though. Amazing how things can be turned around so quickly.

But like others have said that makes you think more than anything, the author is clearly well educated and i think thtat helps but might god it makes you think!

I've not read the whole thread but what I have read has been very touching
Certainly makes you think about your driving style. Something else to think about, for all the people who have been caught speeding (including myself) is that the camera/van/gun you/I failed to slow down for at the side of the road could just as easily have been a child in the middle of the road
I think anyone who has read this thread should look at thier driving style and consider the conequences of it
