The point of my post is that the OP has a blatant disregard for the law - it wasn't an accident, it wasn't a lapse in judgement, nor was it some mid-life crisis. I would have thought (erroneously, obviously), that this forum would distinguish between a mistake and obvious recklessness that puts the lives of others at risk, and insure that others don't follow in those footsteps (yup, through ridicule if necessary - pretty much the defacto standard on any other vehicle related forum).
Regrettably, what I'm gathering here is that we're to extend the same rights and polite manners to any Tom, Dick and Harry, no matter how ridiculously in the wrong they are, and to treat everyone with the same proverbial "kid gloves". So, you mess up, come to the GTA forums, you'll get legal advice on everything including how to kick the neighbour's pets and get away with it...
Odd, I didn't think GTA was a form of moral church where you can come confess your sins and have no repercussions once your session here was completed.
Anyhow, as noted to another moderator, these are your forums, your rules - so long as I choose to be a contributor here, guess I'll have to abide by them...
