vnmous04 Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 Yep, I've been shit faced before. Never gotten behind the wheel of a car though. By "can't handle their booze," I was referring to their inability to make sound judgement calls in regards to vehicles. Belligerence, vomitting, and bar fights are a different topic. Whatever dude. That isnt what you said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Lee Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 Here, I'll quote myself: If they can't handle their booze, they sure as hell can't be expected to handle serious horsepower or size. That's exactly what I said. I simply clarified its intended meaning with this: By "can't handle their booze," I was referring to their inability to make sound judgement calls in regards to vehicles.

vnmous04 Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 no, what you are saying is that if you can't handle your booze that you can't make a sound judgement about a vehicle. Or you are saying that if somebody who drinks and gets drunk (can't handle booze) can't handle a car with serious horse power. What the hell does handling there booze have anything to do with driving a car. Unless you are saying that handling your booze means driving drunk.

Guest Hal Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 Last time I got drunk (only the second time actually drunk), I puked everywhere for a long ass time. Who do I hand my keys to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nitrousbird Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 I love how anyone assumes the kid that wrecked that car bought it himself. I am going to bet it was purchased by Mommy and Daddy motorsports. As are most cars in that price catagory for people that age and younger.

tristanlee85 Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 I don't think the fact that 2 people died in a Vette justifies the statement that "young people shouldn't drive Vettes." You are reading a news article that involves 2 sports cars, a wreck, and death. Of course, it's going to be portrayed as some young punk in daddy's car out racing and killing himself and his friend. I don't think the article mentioned anything about knowing the speed. If this was a Metro, the story would be portrayed completely different. And to another point, you can make your own decisions of whether or not to speed or race on the interstate, or you can drive "normal" and still not have any control of the mechanical actions of your car or even those around you. Congrats to those who had a bike and a STI when they were young. That's completely irrevelant to the story and the end result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
