Not good. I hope the two pedestrians that the car hit are not badly injured.

Please do not write in sms style posts. It is not acceptable on this forum and is very annoying to the majority of users.

The big deal is that it is not accepted on this site. It is a decision the administrators made based on the majority and it is enforced for the same reason.

We had a bad boy of a crash, in Oakville, two guys were racing their commodores down this semi-rural road, came up to a Stop sign intersection Commodore one slowed commodore two continued and got airborne on a hump, hit a pole, split in two, driver flew, no need for an Ambulance for this one. P plater by the way.

Luckily I wasn't working, I didn't need that type of carnage for the weekend!

Falcon and Commodore must have too much power for their drivers too handle!

just a habbit for me. i'll keep it in mind but everyone does it on msn .. =[

i don't think these accidents were p platers, even though they tend to go silly on the roads as soon as they see another slightly modified falcon on the road.

I think some people are just very poor readers if they cannot read it. I dont see the annoying part in it. It's just as easy as basic english to follow. I dont even do it, but I just cant see what the big fuss is about. Sorry mods, I know rules are rules.
