I think all you people are being a little bit unfair to this young bloke, after all it wasn’t his fault. Don’t they say any test welcome? The poor little darling may have had a troubled childhood, or a school teacher may have kept him in after school or even yelled at him : .

Personally I blame the television for this. If they didn’t show reruns of the Dukes of Hazzard this sort of thing would not have happened.

Cheers, Danny

This couldn't be further from the truth. If you are involved in illegal activity ie speeding, drunk, etc. This can and will void your insurance and any calim made. It is irrelevant to what damage it caused.

What corner? Grimshaw st is a straight four lane stretch of road. Unless if he was trying to do some stylen drift action in his fully s1ck clubby down a side street next to watson holden... :

Sure he/she wasn't disappointed with the car and trying to forcefully return it?
My boss has one of them for his A-B driving, not thrilled with it either.
Anyway, stuff the rest of the cars, the bastard hit the falcon. What a waste of a perfectly good ute.
