i agree with RCZ, this is no laughing matter. we all agree that this kid was an idiot for having bald tires in the middle of a snow storm, but the fact still remains that he is dead and his family and friends are the ones paying the price.

what's the difference between driving drunk and being a lil street racer then? they both are wreckless and can be 100% avoided by the driver. sorry but that kid was SELFISH. luckily he didn't kill anybody else, imagine how sad that would have been for that family? come on people you have to get real, he could have killed your mom/dad/brother/sister etc.......

Sometimes I don't understand people. They are more concerned with their insurance premiums rising more so than recognizing that there is another mother without her son, probably another baby brother with no big brother to show him how to do things. The first thing that should be said is i'm sorry for their family's loss.

Regardless of the circumstances the result is unfortunate. The guy was 20, in all respects still a kid. Sure, at some point people have to grow up and realize what life is all about, but it seems to me that he had speed complex. That's the type of behavior that needs to be channeled, obviously he liked to drive fast, so sign up for drag racing classes or a racing introduction class that he could go to on the weekends to race in a virtually safe environment, by safe I mean obviously safer than a snow filled road with bare tires. I would hope that once he reaches speeds in excess of 200mph on his test run with an experienced racer he would see that it’s hard enough to go in a straight line with no cars around what makes me think I can do that in the snow and watch out for others, it really puts things in perspective.

He had a bright future ahead of him regardless of how he drove and what condition his tC was in. It should not have been on the road in its condition but we all have done things we shouldn't have done. To read comments that say I wonder if he's parting out are just disrespectful. If the same thing happened to one of you and you ended up paying the ultimate price whether you are at fault or someone else, it does not matter I would still feel bad for your family and those affected by your loss.

Everyone was young, dumb, an idiot and naive at some point; some just don't make it out of that stage and that's unfortunate.

I'm just saying, take a moment and put things into perspective before looking at your insurance premium.

I'm pretty sure the baby brother would not want to learn from this big brother...definitely not showing him how to do things like driving.
