Some guy in an R32 Skyline just T-boned some poor old lady driving a Hyundai Excel killing her. He gets away with nothing more than a bloody nose. Damn hoons!!!
Right outside my house!!!
Someone's mother and wife isn't going home tonight because of some twat trying to be a hero!![]()
this world will always have idoits in it. and nothing will ever change sadly![]()
Nah, he doesn't just get away with just a blood nose, he will now have to live the rest of his life knowing he killed someone by driving like an idiot.
Personally, i'd rather be dead than have to live with that.

Heaps of people came out to try and help but we couldn't get a single door open. Thing was bent like a banana!!! SES said she was probably killed on impact. They've still got the street roped off and the cars are still sitting in the middle of the road. Freaky!!!![]()

If they prove he was being an idiot he could be looking at some Prison time.
Poor woman, RIP.
And hope the idiot does think about her everyday, and the innocent family he has just taken her away from.
Should have his licence taken away for good. D!ckhead...
I'm extremely upset by what I have seen today. It has kind of made me take a good hard look at my own driving habits.
Glad my wife wasn't home, she would have been hysterical!
Involuntary manslaughter I think, and any other charges in regards to driving like a dimwhit.
Could you explain what happened a little better?
He would have to have been flying to kill someone

Not really,if she was hit right into the drivers door the inpact doesnt have to be extreme to kill somebody.A slight hit to the temple area can kill.Dont forget too,she was elderly and the elderly dont hold up as well as younger people.Thats what killed my grandfather,a fairly minor accident.
Guy in Skyline driving well above speed limit. Won't speculate on what speed he was doing but I do know he was well above the 60km/h speed limit. I was in my front yard picking up rubbish when I heard this guy come screaming down the road and looked up about 2 seconds before I heard the impact. Didn't see the impact because it was obscured by a tree.
I think the other car came out of a side street and he hit her square on right on the driver's side. Launched her car 20 metres down the road where it came to rest on the other side of the road. I live on Station Street. It goes Station street, train line then Nepean Highway. I had a pretty good view of it bar the actual impact.
Both the cars are currently in a yard right near my house. I could take some photos but is that kind of insensitive? The Hyundai is an absolute mess!!! I might go take a look tomorrow.

i feel sorry for tha family of that old lady. as stupid as it sounds i feel sorry for tha young bloke aswell. u can flame me if u want but i wont say i was not stupid when i first got my licence. im jus lucky somethin like this did not happen to me
Indeed its a terrible thing to happen but the guy needs his head kicked in... when i wanna act like a smart ass on the road i keep it to the skidpad at the local dragway. its common sense not to act like a tool on the road. I have witnessed a similar accident when i was at the uni library on a wet winter morning, some smart ass P plater showin off to his trady mates spun it round a round-a-bout lost it and pinned this lady against the back of her car getting her grocerys out.... i ran out of the building to help but the ambos bet me to it.
Pretty nasty stuff to see.

And in regards to the older generation not knowing how to judge speed etc, If you have been leaving home from the same street for 20 years, and you know from experience that if a car is 50mtrs away, you have time to pull out safely, as the speed limit is slow for that area.... why is it up to you(the elderly) to judge the speed of a car that has just entered view. This guy was probably doing double the speed limit....therefore halving the time of arrival.....Not an old lady's fault!!
I'm sure if it happened to you, you would be fairly angry with the driver!!
Laws are there for a reason!! stick to them or pay the price, in this case, Killing someones Mother, Grandmother ........
Throw the book at him!!
