To be fair, jaws of life probably did some damage afterwards. I guarantee they used it to free the passenger. Still crazy though. The fact that people lived through that is pretty remarkable.

That will never happen because it's "too mean". I guess I'm a "hater" (another wuss term).

The comments would be much different if these idiots had taken out a family in their mini van. Thank god no inncocent people were injured.

When I posted that I was referring to the 370Z driver losing his life. I don't wish for that. If they both never are allowed to drive again, perfect. If he's mangled and has trouble living an ordinary life because he put other people in such great risk, I won't feel sorry for him.

We all make bad choices...just don't make a choice for someone else.

The nissan driver is probably a douche or whatever, maybe????? But I know I get pickups tailgating me harrassing me and cutting me off all the time. Who knows how that began??? Pick up truck drivers usually hate on imports often. I see it done to others constantly as well, even more aggressively than its been done to me. All I know is pick ups are 10x more aggressive than sports cars n I see them have more accidents overall.
The attitude toward sports cars from SUV/Pickup world is incourageable.

I wonder if that driver is on the forum.

Maybe it's the mystery of you being "unknown"

I agree with you though. I get head lights right on my *** all the time and I cruise 68mph on the freeway in the center lane minding my own business.

Its not easy for me to stay unknown in a 370z. Bein incognito is damn right hard... lol

Some Road Rage there. Solution to getting the last word in, ram the guy into a tree.
Oh and why the hell do people always plant trees right next to the road. Yeah they look nice but they have no place there.

I feel sorry for the 370z.

I also hope the driver will get well BUT BOTH drivers receive necessary penalty.

As an owner of a Z and Silverado, all I can say is RIP blue 370Z....surely you're going to a better place.

The scrap yard is a terrible and depressing place.

Thumper, I understood what you posted and respect your opinion.

Me, I stand by what I said. Funny, I've heard stronger sentiments expressed in the crappy parking thread.

Nobody would be feeling sorry for that dumb a55 if a child had been killed.

People want to hold hands and sing Kumbya, they should feel free to. Until society takes irresponsible acts like this one seriously, innocent people are at risk.

Damn, unbelievable! I find it interesting though that people already decided guilt. What makes you so sure the z driver was a douche? He was running away from the pickup. who knows? Maybe the pick up driver was some inbred redneck flashing a gun and trying to shoot the z driver or something. Hey I'd speed like a bat out of hell too if someone in a truck was trying to shoot me. I'm just surprised the z driver didn't try to go into a few corners quickly to try and get away from that truck, instead of just speeding in a straight line.

tjlazer · 11-03-2011, 10:01 PM

I agree, if I was being harrassed by some *** in a truck that was trying to ram me I might be very inclined to punch it and get gone, especially in my Z. He was probably trying to get away and the red neck in the truck was going to show him in his truck. The place they apparently had the altercation is an island where there are clubs and bars, and its also a place where people cruise. It all started there and they took off and the Z was trying to get away. That is what I got from the article. Plus I know the area well and I use to cruise around there a lot.

So you think it's ok to put other people in danger to save yourself? You think the truck driver decided to go after him at total random and the Z driver did nothing to provoke this? Interesting...
