Yeah I know really sucks, I saw the VL that night and knew something bad was going to happen, then saw the wreck on the front page of the paper. I just dont understand why he'd street race with others in the car.

yehh I know, I lost my license for street draging, still got a couple off months till I get it back, lets just say lesson learnt!

[madxr6]

Yeah hope others learn from whats happened.

I'd say if somebody's going to street race, do it alone even better just dont do it at all, take it to the drag strip or circuit.

Shocking to see all of the teens who dont have their liscence or have just got their P's racing, and crashing.

Yeh there's a lesson to be learnt from what happened that day.

that's a sad story if ever I've heard one!

Young people dieing is always a hard thing to hear about

The best thing that can come out of this is that it makes somebody think twice about doing this stuff.

I think its horrible that the person responsible for the crash always seems to survive yet the passenger dies. But then again on the other hand maybe its good he survived so he can cop the punishment he deserves!!!

that's why things like the motorplex was built where people could race safely yet this sh*t still happens. It doesnt matter what restrictions the government might bring in it wont stop people being idiots. Even their mums 1.6l getz will still get to high speeds just not so quickly.

I just wish they could see what happens from other peoples mistakes and be more sensible yet they for some reason still want to find out for themselves :( silly! And then when something goes wrong they try and find every excuse under the sun to try and get out of something they know they rightfully f*cked up!

FYI, I can chirp the Yaris into 2nd

I hope I don't learn the naswer for myself one day but why was a girl <span style='color:yellow'><span style='font-size:21pt;line-height:100%'>14</span></span> with a Boyfriend <span style='color:yellow'><span style='font-size:21pt;line-height:100%'>17</span></span>?

What were the parents thinking? This girl should have been home listening to The Veronicas with slumber party girlfriends.......

Only question I really had about the whole thing.

Look at what one person commented about the article on the crash on this news website:

http://www.news.com.au/perthnow/comments/0...184-948,00.html

"I hope the driver of the Commodore ( rego DAWG ED) that ran me off the road on Friday evening takes note! Also his passenger who threatened me with a wheel brace, when I got upset. If the parents of this individual happen to read this - what on earth is your son up to? He is a disaster just waiting to happen."
