[QUOTE="C Weil, post: 3499760, member: 20065"] 43 in a 25 (likely residential?)? Not signaling or stopping at a stop? No, I don't do those, or I would've said that I was guilty of it, too. I never said or claimed to be the world's most perfect driver, but there is definitely something to be said about [i]responsibility[/i] when driving quick cars. Seems to be a lesson slowly learned for most teenagers, and boards like this definitely don't help foster it, that's for sure! It doesn't mean you have to drive like a grandma, but there are certain things you should definitely not do, no matter what you drive, and it seems that you've done some of those. Doing stupid things on the street? Not since I was 16. Even then, it was very minor (read: wussy). I've never gotten a ticket, and only ever been pulled over for a broken turn signal (well, twice). One of the advantages of being at a racetrack every week, sometimes a couple times a week, is that I just don't have the desire to speed on the street because it's a big waste of time- extremely unsafe, not very fun comparatively, especially when you've only been driving for a couple years. And don't give the excuse that you can't be expected not to speed just because you can't go to a track very often- that's not the problem of the other drivers on the road, so don't make it theirs. Lesson learned or not, only time will tell if it will actually sink in. I'm sorry if it sounds harsh, but sometimes coddling and sugar coating the real issue doesn't get the point across. Don't take it the wrong way- whether you want to hear it or not, I, like everyone else here, am only trying to help. I just don't think people take this sort of thing very seriously. I don't think you are alone in that. Edit: Poor grammar. :rollseyes [/QUOTE]
