Two guys racing in a Porsche at about 250kph when a car pulls out in front of them. This could've been very bad and shows that these things are best left to trackdays, VMax, etc

Let's be careful out there..!

There's a Porsche somewhere in that link!



Sheer madness. If I was going to drive quickly on a public road I'd do it between other traffic for that reason.

Whoops! Sorry, but he should have anticipated that a "normal" person on the road would have seen him in the mirror some distance away, not judged his speed (or not expected him to be doing 155mph!) and pulled out. He got away with it though eh?

Lucky to get away with it and I bet he needed a change of pants afterwards, but a REALLY bad driver would probably have just hammered the brakes and not tried steer his way out of trouble.

that is just stupid on a 2 lane road and not at least one free lane between you and vehicles you are overtaking at that speed difference IMO

That driver is a complete pratt. He doesn't deserve a licence. There is no excuse for driving like that on public roads. If he wants to drive fast, he should take his car to a track day before he kills somebody.

On the road,if driving at a reasonable pace, anticipation is all,1 car on the inside lane show care,2 cars on the inside lane if close together You Have to slow until passed.
Yes the driver was lucky, but for sure with him it will happen again and God knows what will happen.He is a perfect arrogant example of how not to drive.
