Remember the story about the 18 yr old and the BMW M5, guess how that ended up?

The members of the BMW forum are pretty sure it's one of their posters that died in the crash at the airport community where John Travolta lives.

I'm not really sure what to say about that accident, but I'm pretty sure he had it coming.

And my son wonders why he won't get a Mustang "GT" when he's 16. I let them ride ATV's and MC now so hopefully they'll respect speed and understand it's for tracks and off-road only. I told him last night his first car was going to be a Ford Focus and he gave me a wierd look!

It is truly a tragedy when anyone gets killed in an auto accident, no matter how dumb they may be?.they may have it coming but family and friends probably don?t care about that.

With that said I have thought for a long time that the laws should be changed concerning teens behind the wheel?15 is too young to be behind the wheel of a car with your peers.
Especially when there are so many STUPID parents out there that buy their kids cars/trucks that are too big and powerful for their abilities. Some of the blame clearly falls on the parents for being so irresponsible. But that is just my opinion.
