alcohol limit should be 0 for all drivers, no exception. (ok, maybe 0.0001, so you wont get booked for using mouthwash).
I got pulled over once for driving too well and being extremely polite, and the
cop was about to go and I asked him about mouthwash and the ethanol
content. Anyway I grabbed my bottle of mouthwash and took a mouthful, spat,
and blew into the breathalyser. The cop stood there going .1, .2, .3, .4, .5... ok
now you've died. It was a fun test :)

Oh, and then there are those students who study in the car, and then miss the lights because they're not concentrating. That annoys me! How much more info could they absorb!?

lol. studying while driving!!

I guess if your studying something important and you smash, then you will remember it because it will become vivid :p

A 94 Camry Wagon with a 98 engine

The trick is to wait till you feel the back about to kick out when you start accelerating as to counter the slide

No. Well, maybe at first, but then time kept moving, and then BAM you wake up and its the day, but nothing happens.

Selfish and arrogant.

Do you hate those people who take corners too fast around epping sliding out and then screeching away...i hate them ;)
There was a WRX P-plater who slid and couldnt control his car (stupid seeing its AWD) but because he took the corner so fast he drifted into a restaurant.

Its amazing how many place you can go for illegal street racing yet the government nor local police departments crack down on it. For example the so called "the runz" at Liverpool outside Krispy Kreme. I'm sure they have their reasons though. Dragging is just for idiots (and any other form of illegal street racing). "Wow look at me I can drive straight!"

From what I have seen, most of the time people tend to go over the speed limit either 1) to impress their mates or 2) because they are impatient and in some sort of a hurry. It is such a shame that people believe that risking your life is worth making just to be a few minutes early (yet often you make no beneficial progress). When I was learning and on roads with limits of 60Km/h everyone around me was going at least 70.

I think it would be easier to feel the tail dragging in a wagon.

As for the meetup we should of kept it simple and stuck with the original movie plans.

Very much so, and i only do it lightly, nothing drastic, i know my limits and have no intention of trying to push them as i know the car isnt in the best of shapes :)
