You gotta be smart enough to understand the rules of motorcycling, and dumb enough to think the game's important.

I got the background on this from another forum that the responding cop spends time on.

Funny thing about this one is that the cop owns a 450rwhp GTO, had they not wiped out so bad they might have gotten a pass.  The C5 vette was pushing 600rwhp and learned why you shouldn't floor it on a road that is curving.

And lack of driver skill.... The out of control guy panicked and slammed his brakes, where he should have powered through it, and guy on the left panicked and did the same when saw driver two out of control, he should have stayed on it to avoid getting wrapped up....I wish there was more to the video to show the damage, I think the guy on the left came out of it worse  :nixweiss:

Could have happened to me when I was younger....guess I got lucky! 
Of course the fact that I could never afford anything with that kind of power certainly helped.
I grew up driving gravel roads...more sideways then straight.
Glad they didn't get anybody hurt.
