    You had to be first eh Scummy?


    I was wondering who was gonna put it up.. Was almost about to do it myself...

    All ACC are gonna worry about is that it is another Fatality on their books. All the more reason to hike our fees..


    Wonder why he was running, Other than the speeding ticket he was gonna recieve..
    The only stupid question is a question not asked!

    Increase in penalties for speeding and there will be an increase in attempted runners. I've said it before.
    In space, no one can smell your fart.

    Fuck, I hate the fact that I know several motorcyclists in that area that may be tempted to do a runner...

    I can't find any info about this in the news????

    OK - Whilst I don't agree with the Police obsession that speed kills; in this instance I do agree.

    well, all I can say is if ya wana be a right idiot and run... end result is you die, then the runner is the only one to blame, no doubt there will be those that say the cops are at fault.. crock a shit, the clown took the chance and lost.

    .
    ACC will be happy with the outcome. It's the rehab and lost wages that hurt them.
