    Kids nowadays grow up so fast..

    All that what caused by an argument about pocket money, hopefully they will not allow him any more until he is at least 45.

    It's a place in the UK called Hull where they look after young people. Of course looking after seems to be allowing them easy access to SUV keys rather than just healthy meals and lots of exercise and fresh air.

    If it had been a manual he would have kangeroo'd for about 300 feet before giving up but automatics are too easy to drive for the untrained....

    People just are too lax when it comes to security these days.

    Whereas these sensible children leave it up to an adult to drive them around.

    Before you point fingers I'm sure we have all forgotten something after a few beers!

    For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream.

    This is why we should beat kids more.

    Main Rig

    Intel Core i7-2600K (SLB8W, E0 Stepping) @ 4.6Ghz (4.6x100), Corsair H80i AIO Cooler
    MSI Z77A GD-65 Gaming (MS-7551), v25 BIOS
    Kingston HyperX 16GB (2x8GB) PC3-19200 Kit (HX24C11BRK2/16-OC) @ 1.5v, 11-13-13-30 Timings (1:8 Ratio)
    8GB MSI Radeon R9 390X (1080 Mhz Core, 6000 Mhz Memory)
    NZXT H440 Case with NZXT Hue+ Installed
    24" Dell U2412HM (1920x1200, e-IPS panel)
    1 x 500GB Samsung 850 EVO (Boot & Install)
    1 x 2Tb Hitachi 7K2000 in External Enclosure (Scratch Disk)


    Entertainment Setup

    Samsung Series 6 37" 1080p TV
    Gigabyte GA-J1800N-D2H based media PC, Mini ITX Case, Blu-Ray Drive
    Netgear ReadyNAS104 w/4x2TB Toshiba DTACA200's for 5.8TB Volume size

    I refuse to participate in any debate with creationists because doing so would give them the "oxygen of respectability" that they want.
    Creationists don't mind being beaten in an argument. What matters to them is that I give them recognition by bothering to argue with them in public.

    Bet Lewis Hamilton is worried now if the kid can do 110mph in a people carrier LOL.

    The kid needs to be beaten very hard and they should really ban him from getting a driving license until hes 21. That would be a fair enough punishment.

    Breaking news - an unnamed NASCAR sponsor has contacted the youth with an offer to join it's team. A spokesperson, who wished to remain anonymous, said "to get that POS up to 110mph, we belief he has found a way to tap into the 'force'. With proper training and guidance (most likely on a distant, jungle-like planet) we think he could lead our team to unprecedented victories. Plus, we've always really wanted to know how to use those Jedi mind tricks to pick up women - if you can call the slags we get at our races 'women'.'

    Wow....a whole 4 years? Hardly much of a punishment...

    Agreed. Manuals are much more fun if you can drive them though.

    That video shows the kinda thing you see happen on TV on programs like 'traffic cops'. There is a new programme on channel 5 on Friday evenings (dunno if you're in the UK?) called 'Police Interceptors' which is alright, it focuses more on the EVO VIII's and Impreza STI's that the cops use down near Essex.
