Give me a break. On a straight road without a car in sight going at 100 feels like about 40. Have you been to Germany? 130km limits. So no I am not part of the problem, as the behavior has minimal risk.

Those generalisations are part of the reason why you are 5 times more likely to die driving on a country road in Victoria than in a populated area.

Thank about it for a moment, how would your family cope without you?

**** wits speeding and ruining their own lives is one thing but you have no right to put other peoples lives at risk like that. Grow up and follow the speed limits, they're there for a reason

I thought of all my mates who are demons supporters and thought that they would be absolutely shattered...
that is all...

If you flipped it around though and found out your nephew was battling mental demons and turned to drugs (unbeknownst to you) and was in a car accident high on drugs, would you still feel no sympathy due to drugs being in his/her system?

Absolutely no sympathy for anyone who dies driving on drugs or alcohol or speeding.

Why should we forgive these people when they put others at risk.

I could also say imagine if you lost a loved one to a driver on drugs. I recently lost a good mate this way.

No forgiveness to idiots.

**** me at the poster driving at 140kph thinking he's not part of the problem. More people die on country roads than city roads despite way less traffic for some reason...

Here is a story I just came across that explains what happened for anyone interested. Indeed tragic. Mates crashed, but speed was involved and Sylvia was at fault. But it does seem to be a bit of being in the wrong place at the wrong time too, because the accident happened on a crest of a hill so he wouldn't have seen the friend slowing down in front, so I can see how that can lead to disaster such as this on a 100km road. Country roads most of us do 140 anyway.

as a naturally conservative driver (and never really been 'into' cars so never did the burnout/drag/speeding aspect) it baffles me how ridiculously fast some cars drive past even in urban areas

Just today Cameron St off Moreland Rd in Brunswick, next to the tram depot - 2 trams out on the road going into the depot and some dickhead in a ute with P plates flies around the corner from Moreland Road, tyres screechings, flies past the 2 trams and tyres screech again as he flew down Peveril St that leads onto Sydney Road

straight up take their licenses away for life - seriously

Once you're north of separation st/blythe st you're more or less entering a parallel universe where everyone drives like a lunatic

Driving at 140k's is bad but not concentrating on actually driving is worse. I see so many people react too late to traffic because they're either on their phone or talking to the person in the car with them. These are by far the most irresponsible people on our roads. Old slow people also awful and create accidents.
