Another Teen Sensation

admit to it guys, most of us have driven like an ass at one point of our lives. give this guy a break and its definately not entirely the problem of him being a P-plater. a 26 year old man would do the same if he just got his ride (lol dont ask me why i chose 26). good thing that his quick run didn't end up in something bad like most so-called 'experienced' drivers!

I agree with you there mate, but he didn't mention i he was going anywhere in the article, so we are assuming he was doin it cause he could.

I myself have done excessive speed, and i wont vote for anyone who says they haven't, but along a busy street.....weaving cars....it might get his girl excited but what about Malcom stumbling across the crossing after having a good night at the pub...

He didn't mention, or the media didn't mention? Think about it? Who's the one telling you the story, him, or the media.

They're the ones who can leave out facts even if he's given them the facts.

The media gets to spin anything, anyway they want. It's just how they work. Why do you think ACA and TT are always saying how bad P-platers are, they have the power to do it, and they want people thinking P-platers are the worst thing since the black plague! And seriously, I'm sick of it.

P-Platers may not be the most experienced drivers out there, but how do most people learn to handle there cars? No, not on the race track, by pushing it on the road. I ALWAYS hear stories of how older people "used to do this back in my day" but you get looked down upon by them, even if they did the exact same thing, but even stupider!

Everyones done some bloody damn dumb and stupid/illegal things before.

But, if he has no reason other then "I wanted to/I feel like it/I didn't realise" put him in Jail for 3 weeks or something, and take the car off him permanently, along with his licence for a long time.

theres a difference between in-experienced driving and irresponsible driving.

limiting a young driver from getting behind the wheels of certain cars isnt going to make them more experience, just will take away the opporunity to go too stupid.

you can kill yourself in a golf car or a GTR. If his gtr was confiscated he would go out and buy a honda civic and do the same damn thing.

what will fix this? take away his privelage to drive.

PS, im a young P plater aswell and hope this doesnt come accross as a biast opinion, i drive a 33 turbo, i dont muck around on the road and IMO i am a responsible driver, maybe not an experienced one, but i know my limits and under no circumstances come close to hitting them.

you p-platers need to understand that in victoria (where this guy is) its not legal for a p-plater to drive a GTR. So he's breaking the law by driving the thing in the first place.

great another idiot taking a page out of "fast and the furious"

wouldnt be surprised if he had a video strabbed to the dash and then try to youtube it.

idiot..

what shits me more is that he didn't claim responsibility. if he said "ok, im dumb, im glad no one was hurt, ill just cop the punishment" then we wouldn't think he was a complete dickcheese. guess he was the load his mum should have swallowed.
