Does anybody watch Tech TV?

I was flipping thru the channels yesterday and came upon a segment on Tech TV. It was talking about young drivers playing Fast and Furious games on the computer then getting their licences and going out and driving like that for real. Some of the footage was really scarey. Passing on the shoulder of the road at excessive speeds, cutting in and out of traffic etc. I'm not trying to start a contraversy, but it scared the h##l out of me. The jist of this is according to the police that they think they have the mind set that they can reset the game. They even showed footage of wrecks and the cars seem to have just dissentigrated, from such high speeds. All the while they are driving they are video taping their stunts. If you get the channel and the chance watch this it is very informative and scarey.

There was a story on Dateline the other night on this subject. You are right it is scary. In the past month in the Washinton DC area, there have been a number of high speed crashes involving kids in their tuner cars. The sad part, 15 or 16 have lost their lives. I used to commute to A city outside of D.C. and have been passed by brats in their rice cars, driving on the shoulder of the interstate! In all kinds of weather. Crazy a..holes. I got to the point that if they want to kill themselves....fine....just leave the innocent alone!
