It’s probably safe if they are just going fast in areas where they know it’s empty.

But telling the story provides cover for 19-year old kids trying to impress their friends who definitely do not have an advance drone checking for other cars.

As long as 30,000+ people die on our roads every year…my patience for these antics is very limited.

People like this will exist regardless of how much patience we have for them. Personally I prefer them to have a less harmful outlet for their antics than trying to organize a revolution or stage a coup. Look where it got the Soviets.

I would gladly be mown down by a vehicle traveling at 175mph if it minimised the threat of a communist revolution.

45,000+ in 2021, highest in many years
