This thread has really made me think!
Think i've driven around 25k in 10 months or so and since then i admit to my driving becoming very sloppy indeed.

Heres the series of events from the collision investigator:
Eyewitness report of Yellow car travelling way too quick
Vehicle (57 Leon CupraR) enters bend at 130mph plus
Knocks 30mph off, strikes solid concrete post at 100mph
Post rips off engine, gearbox, hubs, breaks discs and wheels into bits
Engine lands 40foot from point of impact
Car hits engine, gets launched into air
Drivers ejected from car
Car lands on driver after car rolls in air
Car comes to halt about 100foot from point of impact
Passenger unplugs seatbelt and climbs out with a scratched face to find his dead friend on the floor.......
Not nice, especially at the time of the morning!
Wear your seatbelts people, I dont wanna have to see that again and find out its one of you lot............................
RIP
I found out today roughly where this crash took place and 130mph
this is a single carraige way road that comes down from a dual carraige way into a 30mph /40mph limit im not sure which, goes up past a school on the brow of a hill then down into a built up area with houses & flats either side of the road where the car lost control on the bend. no body deserves to lose they life but that is reckless and lucky nobody else was injured or killed
