I can't see your friend racing really doing just 20 over. If he is just driving fast, we all do it at one point, and that is not good either, but to race, really, there is no place for it on the streets, no excuses.

Poor taxi driver.

breaking the laws of the road won't kill you.
it's breaking the laws of physics that will.

some ppl are just too dumb to even have self control.

People who drive carelessly result in another human death shall have their DL revoked for life. Plain and simple.

"The street racing video game Need For Speed was apparently found in one of the luxury cars, which belonged to the teens’ parents."

My prayers and thoughts are with the taxi drivers family... Stupid kids...
