Have you guys seen the photo's of her accident?

She was driving her dads porsche, lost control, and slammed against a concrete toll both. Graphic pictures of what happened to her.

If you google her name, you can see the photos, unless it's ok with the moderators for me to post a link to where you can see the photos.

I wouldn't want to just post them here, it's too graphic.

This is super old no?

She was a cutey though prior. More reason why a parent should NEVER entrust their child with a sports car.

I'm not sure how old it is, I saw it from this site:

http://www.rs25.com/forums/f160/1375...ok-like-6.html

Posted on June 21st 2010, when they mentioned her. I wanted to see pictures of the bmw crash, but it's not working for me.

Thats why they should limit the top speed of all vehicles to no more than 80mph (and 60 for SUVs/Pick-ups, and 50 for buses/big rigs). Really no reason to go faster than that.

Yeah I didn't throw up, but it was a sick feeling partly from astonishment of how a person can end up like that, and feeling bad for this poor girl ending up like that as well.

That's why I've always liked the idea of zone regulated speed limits. If they could implement devices into vehicles that regulate the top speed based on the speeds in the region, ie if its 45mph in a certain zone, let the car go max 52 (for passing purposes). I could see a technology like this preventing high speed accidents, or people speeding in unsafe zones, like when I went 71mph in a 45mph zone. Of course if they did this, they'd be losing out money on tickets for speeders. But then they could issue a REALLY heavy fine for people who bypass that system. Less cops on the road sitting to ticket people? Money-saver?

I think people would still be getting into colossal accidents. Just because they can only go to 52mph won’t stop them from trying to weave through at that speed. Not to mention since it will take longer to pass, the second they think their clear, they’ll cut in-front of you.
