    Exactly

    Although driving at an ndicated 176mph is mind numbingly stupid on that sort of road - when he was doing that the road was clear

    Overtaking on blind bends forcing oncoming traffic to take evasive action is much worse - thats where people are more likely to get killed.

    There is this government campain that Speed is this great evil - when its inappropriate speed for conditions which is what it should be campaining against - but even then far more accidents are caused where speed is not a key factor at all.

    I have been driven on a german autobahn legally at 150mph and felt a lot safer than when I have been doing 70mph on the M5 in holiday season

    we could come up with a long list of things which are more dangerous (takes us away from the real issues).

    anyone who feels the need to do that sort of speed has a missing link somewhere.

    straight road? - doesn't matter, there can be unseen debris, a small mammal / bird could easily throw a spanner in the works of a mindless man.

    RE: For hoping he kills himself before he murders an innocent person?

    Yes i do find you despicable for wishing someone dead for driving like an idiot, but i will also say i think he is a w*nker of the highest order for driving like that and putting others at potential risk by doing so. I would rather he get caught by the police for driving like that or simply see sense himself rather than wish him dead

    What a selfish pr1ck

    This is why motorcyclists have such a bad reputation, clowns like this.

    Indeed

    so he's only doing about a ton, i knew from watching the vid there is no way he's taking those bends at 124 mph as i've rode that road many times.

    Factually incorrect post.

    He's heading towards Barnsley. It's the Woodhead Pass from just after crossing the bridge entering Barnsleyland towards the Flouch.

    And he's a ****.

    What a fecking moron. The rider onviously left the brain-cell at home. I hope the police do find him and ban him for a very long time. I dont wish people dead but i'd rather a knob like this died alone than an innocent driver who was hit by this thoughtless lovely person.
