Hope this wasn't someone on the forum

Saw a quick clip of the news and recognized that one of the vehicles involved was an Space Gray E92 335i (maybe IS because it had a diffuser) with red leather interior.

That article should be stickied and put in the general E90 section where I see regular posts about street racing.

They should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Anything less than 10 years in jail would be a travesty in my opinion. They deserve to rot in jail for 10 years, and then they deserve to rot in whatever lower class existence they'll find after they get out of jail, hopefully doing hard labor for minimum wage while paying civil penalties to the victim's family for life.

one day when you have time, I hope you go and read about the justice system in northern Europe. I think you would benefit from it in life a lot.

I've read that book a million years ago. Loved it but as with all russian literature, one needs pen and paper to sort through the names.

Hi, and sorry about fucking this up. No coffee yet.

Our system is to rehabilitate people back to productive members of community instead of locking people up for life.

What these kids did was not right, but a life for a life and ten years in an institution will rotten their brain is not justice, its revenge.

I will gladly try yo explain this after my brain kicks in.

In Belgium we arrest them, then release them again the next day. Much more efficient!

Haha, it doesn't sound like it, I admit it, but you know as I do the cost of a prison day and also how much keeping people tied to the system costs vs them being productive members of the community.

Again, I realm don't condone their actions, I'm just saying locking people up does no good for anyone.

Very very sad... the driving laws, speed limit laws and driver license laws in this country are a bit backwards.

Remember that in the US, the prisons are a big for-profit industry! The more people are locked up, the more money this industry makes.

Yup, funnily this is not considered slavery.

In our prisons people also work, but they get paid for it and they get educated to new professions if needed. My favorite was my dads endless rants (he worked in the ministry of justice so this was one of our favorite topics to talk about) about completely spoiled cows. A prison saved our ancient cow breed but two ministries dropped the ball and our country now has extremely efficient farm hands, sadly no farms.

Well done Finland!
