He just got his learner's permit a week ago, and well, he was pissed off over things which I won't mention here because it doesn't matter (let's just say they would p!ss me off, too), and he "borrowed" his mom's standard civic, and we went driving along with another friend (at about 5am).
I thought I drove a bit crazy when I was pissed off, well that's nothing compared to last night! My friend had drank 8-9 beers, and we left about 2-3 hours after he stopped drinking. Just after leaving the house he floored it and then we were going 140km/h (90 mph) down Lakeshore, a twisty 2-lane road along the water, which had black ice here and there, it was slippery. He was making the car skid (on purpose) at those speeds which scared the sh!t out of me.
Then we went on the highway where he brought it up to 180km/h (115 mph) which didn't really bother me because it was the highway. Then we went around downtown, then on the way back we went down this street Wellington which has lots of bars and clubs at 140-150km/h (90-95 mph) and blew a red light at that speed, which also scared the crap about of me because I don't want to die 😉
Even worse than that though is when we went back on Lakeshore and it was a section with telephone poles right along the road and the road has no shoulder, and it twists a lot so you can't see farther than about 5 seconds down the road, and he has a tendancy to hug the right so these poles are flying by at 140km/h about 10 centimeters from my face.. holysh!t.
I mean, I've done some stupid sh!t like getting my flat when I hit that curb in the snowy parking lot but I've never driven to put my or other's lives in danger..
I don't think I'm gonna go driving with him for a while :Q
