Maybe he was going so fast for a reason. Maybe he wasn't just an idiot driver. Maybe he had an accident because an animal or small child was in his path.

Yeah, speeding is stupid, but it's pretty tough to judge someone when you don't have all the facts.
The guy on this IOTD was _very_ fast. I don't know foreign cars, but today BMW, Mercedes and Audi do great cars that take alot of damage before they look like that. Imagine the forces that tear apart that steel frame (you need force or an idot to do this to a car).
The car has 450-480 hp, I guess it was just too tempting...

yep he was going quick. Obviously much quicker than he should have been. I just think there may have been some reason for it. There's not a huge percentage of people who choose to drive like idiots. Maybe he was one. But maybe he wasn't.
