My GF's family was in town (15 Puerto Ricans), and we piled into three cars to get up to the Fourth of July fireworks show in Anthem.
She was in the first car, I was in the second. We were on Pyle, headed eastbound and stopped at the light on Maryland. Next to my GF was a blinged out BMW. Custom rims, tires, no lincense plate, etc.
The light turned green and the BMW peeled out and took off. Okay, we figured he was just being a jackass, but whatever, no harm done.
We trained up to Spencer... At that intersection we saw a hopped up BMW that'd hit two other cars. Bounced off an SUV and them slammed into a sedan.
No one looked seriously injured, so we kept on our way. The general sentiment was that we would not have mourned the death of the BMW driver.
The moral: peeling out isn't bad. A quick race up to speed isn't really bad. But once you get up to the speed limit, make sure to stop gaining speed. And for heaven's sake: watch the heck out for things you may hit. We don't care if you die, but please don't kill someone innocent.
