Guy was clowning in a residential area. Lost control of his Gen 6 SS and landed on top of a Malibu. Killed two, injured three including himself.

We have incredibly powerful cars. Knowing when, where, and how to use that power is what must be kept in perspective.

This happens everyday to people driving all types of vehicles. People driving way less powerful cars can kill. You can surf the internet and come up with these accidents all over the place. Sure its a sad story but lets save the lectures for another day.

Part of the subtle point is. There's never another day and always the same reply from certain groups boasting about their abilities, no matter what the incident was. They are a better driver and it can't happen to them.
