I Can't Drive 155

There's a video on the Internet of some guy taking his new Lamborghini up to two-hundred-and-some MPH on Arizona public roads. The driver insists it's cool because his car is made for those speeds, Arizona roads are straight and well-maintained, and it's night, so there's no other traffic. (Except for the other traffic he had to slow down for in the video.)

I found the video at a car enthusiast website, so of course there are plenty of comments cheering and backslapping and complimenting the guy on the size of his reproductive organ his vehicle and driving ability. After the irritation faded, I decided that my hope was none of these fools ever discover, in person, exactly why encouraging someone to drive >200 on a public road is a bad idea.

There's a time and place for such things and it's usually on the Bonneville Salt Flats or on Top Gear. Anything other than that and it's just stupid. :P
