How the hell can she compare driving a car at that speed to letting a shotgun off in a crowded street?
It's also mentioned that a car's apparantly uncontrollable at that speed, what? It's a sport's car... I have mate's who regulary drive their home car's on circuits reaching these kind of speeds, and dont have any problem controlling them. Granted this is under controlled conditions, and im not in any way condoning what this driver did.. but these people's reactions are ludacris.
Who's to bet the road was deserted at the time
