This might sound insensitive, but I don't think the driver deserve to live.

It says that the driver has some head injury but his gf in the passenger side is in critical condition.

Deserve is the wrong word. But I think Darwin has something to say about wreckless behavior. He is lucky he didn't weed himself out of the gene pool, hope he learned his lesson.

What would happen to the guy in the BMW if he told the police that it was him racing, which he obviously wouldn't.

Gray BMW? Without knowing the tags nor IDing the driver, good luck on locating that driver.

Racing in a 30 mph zone. ....at this rate, it won't be long before every street in the US will have speed bumps to dissuade folks from street racing.

The 350Z is an extremely solid car (it has the same frame as the FX35/45) and has a fantastic safety rating (5 stars all around), so this idiot had to be going extremely fast to do that to the car. Glad he didn't kill another driver

wow, see guys like this is the reason why my insurance is out of this world.... I mean common what teen isn't going to race his car on the streets? I do, all the time but I do it in the middle of nowhere on a virtually unused road where the speed limit is 65 and not in a neighborhood (spelling, i know hushup). It's guys like these which give teen drivers a horrible name.

things like this happen everyday and they're always posted on forums like AZ but there's no doubt in my mind that some, if not most, people on here have, and will, continue to street race.

we all think we're invincible.

it doesn't matter where you street race, whether it be on a country road, or on a public blvd, if you crash your car, insurance has to pick up the tab, therefore increasing rates for everyone else. if you crash your car, other 17 year olds are going to bitch about you making their rates go up. it's pretty simple, just dont street race, not to mention most teenagers dont even have a car worth racing.

XD, it's pretty hard to crash on a 8 (4/4) lane wide road, watch you be the guy who jinxes us, and i dont care if i drive a buick, it can pretty much beat any everyday car , but yes I tottaly agree w/ you, street-racing gets really boring anyways, which is why I want a CL so I can take it to a track.

Well, I dunno...he only got injured badly...hurt his GF...destroyed his car...saw his insurance climb to $$$$$...get in trouble with Dad...and then with mom...and then the police...probably get laughed at by his friends for being stupid...

Not sure...some people take alot to learn.

hard to crash on a 4 lane road? it doesn't matter how many lanes there are, one little mistake and you're done. and you street race in your buick? clearly, you must be the coolest kid in your high school. you want a CL so you can take it to the track? what's stopping you from taking your buick to the track?

Here's the myspace page of the driver:
http://www.myspace.com/pickle430
And the myspace page of his gf:
http://www.myspace.com/amber_o6

WTF is wrong with this girl? Look at the comment she left on his myspace:

"i miss u soo much already...i luv u hunny! i know u make it through this...this is nothing for u!!!!!i miss ur voice! i luv u soooo much luv ur soul mate for life"

So apparently she doesn't care that he almost killed her.

LOL IT Manager at 20. I seriously doubt that. Maybe a IT Tech.

He also said he had a 2006 Civic And look at the plates on her car, same date as the Z. Kinda weird.
