19 year old 191km/h in Mercedes C200 Kompressor
Well what can you say about this story. Actually quite alot.
To start off with what an idiot.
Secondly, why was he driving Mercedes C200 Kompressor, surely it could not have been his.
Thirdly, for the 4 passengers, go buy a lottery ticket, you are lucky to be alive.
A 19-YEAR-OLD P-plate driver has been caught allegedly doing 191km/h – 100km/h above the speed limit – south of Sydney.
Police say a radar check showed he was driving at 191km/h in a 100km/h zone on the F6 at Helensburgh early on Friday afternoon with four passengers on a provisional licence that restricted him to 90km/h.
They stopped the 2004-model silver Mercedes C200 Kompressor, suspended his licence on the spot and issued him with a Field Court Attendance Notice for driving at a dangerous speed, exceeding the speed limit by more than 45km/h, and not displaying p-plates.
The driver, from Tomakin, is due to appear in Wollongong Local Court on February 16.

Pork chops without the pig
Interesting story, but one has to ask the question how safe is it for human consumption?
SCIENTISTS have grown a pork chop in a lab from stem cells and say it could offer an eco-friendly alternative to farming livestock.
The faux chop is made of 2cm long strips of meat and is said to have the texture of a scallop.
Mark Post, of Maastricht University in the Netherlands said cells to make meat could be replicated in vast numbers, The Sun reports.
He said: “If we took stem cells from one pig and multiplied it by a million, we’d need a million fewer pigs to get the same amount of meat.”

Crush hoons cars
Well after reading the following story, there is one answer, destroy their cars, crush them.
That way they may learn a lesson, before they kill someone.
TWO P-plate drivers have had their cars impounded after police caught the pair racing double the speed limit in Melbourne’s eastern outskirts.
The pair were allegedly street racing down the Burwood Highway at 170km/h in an 80km/h zone shortly after midnight.
One of the drivers, an 18-year-old man from Springvale South, was smirking and laughing as officers pulled him over, police say.
The driver had been racing through red lights in his Toyota Supra as a 20-year-old man, also from Springvale South, kept up with him in a Honda Integra as they shot through Vermont South.
Police have seized both vehicles for 48 hours under Victoria’s anti-hoon legislation.
Acting Sergeant Aaron Gribble said he was thankful no one was injured.
“The speed at which these boys were travelling and their lack of respect for other people’s lives on the roads is shocking”, he said in a statement.
