Wow, man. Sorry to hear that. Passing is scary when it's on a one-lane road. I always have that fear and that's why I just don't bother with it. Sorry again, man.

My condolences also.. Just stay positive and strong.

I had a friend who almost died in a similar situation but problem was she was the one who didn't look on the oncoming lane and she hit a truck head-on... Not going to explain in detail what happened but everyone thought she had died from the horrible accident but luckily she started to respond in ICU..

Stay safe everyone. We all drive a really nice machine but safety is still a priority in any driver's list.

I've just read in the news that over this past weekend 8 people died in a head on collision in NY because someone went on the opposite side of the highway and rammed two cars head on...

I really hope that everyone reading this can draw some conclusions and help make the roads safer.

Jesus Wept !
We have a thread with some goon banging on about getting up to insanse speed on a public road (where the public have a right to travel safely and not be terrorised by some idiot in a tank of a car), and then we this thread where people are uring others to drive with more care.
Ye guys really need to figure out which you are. safe or not safe. It's not safe doing 155 MPH on a public road, it's not save overtaking on bends either.
Excessive speed kills.
If you want to speed or "top out" then go to a track with other idiots and get in an accident there. Leave the public roads for public users who respect speed limits.
