T bought a new car. Who the fuk would not wanna rip it on a new car?

wanting to and doing so are 2 different things

doing so responsibly (track etc) and irresponsibly (in the wet on the hwy etc) are 2 different things

Those that want to live past a certain age.

I know its tempting. We've all been there. But if you don't make mature decisions, shit like this happens.

Its a shame. I don't think anyone should shit on them for their mistake though.

Drive safe everyone!

RIP

there's something called if it doesn't sound nice keep it to yourself

some ppl aren't fortunate to make a mistake n live to learn from it, if you haven't pushed beyond ur limits in life you probably haven't really lived....

so ppl jumping outta planes n hoping the parachute will land them safely are stupid? u can go 10 above the speed limit n possibly hit someone crossing the road becuz you slept 1 hour less one day?

RIP to these two kids I don't think i've met that weren't lucky enough to be given a chance to realize their mistakes.... hope it reminds others that've known them to slow down and or test their cars elsewhere....

definitely not a good time, place, or condition to be excessively speeding when ur tires are prolly having trouble to warm up in cold/wet weather

sigh... even though i didnt know them directly this has gotten me in the slumps the whole day. Though i usually drive safe most of the time, I admit I am still guilty of some really dumb driving habits every now and then. Especially late at night when you think no one else is on the road... the lesson learnt is "you never know"

now i feel like a fucking retard for ever driving like a retard

not sure if srs comparison :suspicious:
How are skydivers endangering the lives of others?

callin the deceased idiots because of 1 mistake that costed em their life? really? you cannot called em on their "selfish stupid behaviour" because of this. its not like they PURPOSEDLY crashed to fuck with everyone's physical, mental and emotional state. It sucks that they died but its a big mistake and they paid the price. I don't understand why you would come into this thread and call their actions stupid and call them idiots in the end.. if you dont have anything nice to say, dont say it at all, and i know you wouldnt give a rat's ass, but i for sure will never go to rise auto now because of ur remarks, get some public relation tips online or some shit, you look like a real jackass now and for friends and friends on RS and wherever that know em, you got my full support if you need to talk or anything im here for ya, ive lost many friends over the years and i know how painful it is, keep ya head up guys

This thread can't decide if it wants to be a condolences thread or a discussuion/opinion thread. Unfortunate and understandible that people can't express themselves fully without getting personal because so many on this site eem to know the two who died.

I'm all about second chances, especially when you're that age. Unfortunately some don't get to learn from their mistakes.

Would anyone happen to have a link or video of CBC mentioning RS in reguards to this story? I don't have cable and couldn't find anything at their site.

If that's the case...

let people post locals in the non-JB threads:ilied:

RIP. :cry:

it doesn't unless shit goes wrong is my point

wut if it wasn't speed but just hard enough acceleration n black ice?

only idiot i see is the one representing his auto salon n acting like he knows it all

my 1.4L car can break traction accelerating in 2nd at 30km/h n so can my bike, so i'm an idiot now? good luck w/ sales LOL...

I do agree with all the above. I do.

I'd also like to say: A) If you don't feel comfortable driving it, then don't and B) Slow the fuck down!

Seriously...are you in such a hurry that you can't do 50 over the Lion's Gate bridge? I take the Patullo all the time and get in the right lane and cruise along at a normal speed. We can't replace every single bridge we have, at once with 6 lane bridges. The bill at the end would be astronomical. So maybe we need to do our part, and realize that being in a constant hurry all the time isn't always the answer.

I see people every day putting others at risk so they can do 70 in a 50, whipping around people in traffic so everyone else needs to slow down so they can get home faster.

RIP to the 2 drivers. Hope this makes everyone realize and always think about your actions and the consequences they might have, not just for you yourself, but for your family and everyone around you too.

Whole news article

High speed a factor in Lions Gate Bridge crash - British Columbia - CBC News

^Seems like CBC just made RS sound like some street racing site

^not really... but Phil's auto salon got pretty famous

xTc_6o4 with baby blue s2000 with spoon calipers to blame

Because they said sport car?

because they spoke of speeding and bam segue to revscene

its a light insinuation but its there

CBC reporters registered on the site!? now show urself

The segue was definitely a little awkward and seemed to vaguely hint at "speeding" and "sport car site" as being one and the same. Or it could have been poor writing.

But hey... any publicity is good publicity... right? :concentrate::badpokerface:

probably not the most opportune time to say this, BUT...

i HATE the local media and police - ALWAYS first thing they say is 'speed was likely a factor'

it's not speed, in and of itself, that's at fault here - the BS infrastructure and general lack of driver education prior to getting a full licence (an N is effectively a full licence - as in you don't have to drive with a parent)

look around the world, bigger, better, newer roads/bridges, etc. create safer driving conditions, irrelevant of speed

now, an idiot going way faster than traffic - yes, that's stupid, and that is speed, but here, you can be going 65mph on a multiple lane, non residential road, and you'll be deemed a 'danger' and were 'excessively speeding'

it's usually lack of experience, over excitement and too powerful of a car combined that creates a dangerous situation, such as this - but saying 'the bridge was wet' is BS, modern cars and modern tires can handle 80, 100 kpmh on a straight wet road - so it was likely poor driving and lack of experience that caused this tragic accident.

I certainly hope attitudes change in this city away from individual drivers being the 'fault' (although we shouldn't take away personal fault) - and start concentrating on improving road safety through better education and infrastructure

i'm sure i'll get failed by retards on here who think what i'm saying is insensitive, i'm not commenting on this case or these recently deceased, it's a general comment and we could all benefit from improvements to roads and driver skills

don't worry they learned

holy fuck alpha, the shit you spewed out, str8 fuck boy shit, stop being a fake bitch with ur peace and unity shit, show ur true colours

I think everyone in this thread really needs to take a
