    In the wrong hands

    There should be a licensing system for today's supercars.

    You can’t legislate out stupid. On the other hand I like to hear a Boxster called a supercar.

    The skid marks show where the Porsche Boxster crossed over the southbound lanes, bouncing as it hit a ditch leading up to the two-story building at 1466 Hooper, where signs out front advertise a real estate firm and a counseling services company, among others.

    "The skid marks are really close together. Then over here they're wider, so must've been on its side. It hit the curb, started tumbling, then hit the gully and launched him up into the inside," resident Walter Lucas said.
    That is is a weird incident.

    Sad to hear things like this, but what in the everloving hell were they thinking? I guess they weren't.
