Some ass in a Pinto going 100km/h.

kung napanood nyo na yung the kingdom, ganun daw sila mag drive talaga, reckless, high speed while tailgating. matututo kaya sila from this incident?

sabi nga po nila dito sa UAE kapag may driver license na eh may "license to die & license to kill" ka na dahil sa sobrang reckless dw po ng karamihan ng mga drivers..

Police have said around 200 cars were involved in the crash, which happened in heavy fog, with 25 cars catching fire.

I guess they're not used to seeing dense fog there at the UAE.

I've seen several close calls in northern California and Germany. Good thing most drivers at both places have enough common sense to slow down.

I read the readers' comments on that link. I can't believe after all that's happened, some readers still tried to justify speeding in dense fog. Tsk Tsk Tsk.

It just makes me want to grab the guy by the neck and kick him in the nads.

i've read the comments on that gulfnews article ...

since we don't get that much fog over here ... i don't understand why it is dangerous to turn ON your car's HAZARD lights when it is foggy .

can someone enlighten this foggy brain of mine ?

Hey. I was on the opposite side of that argument ... kaya no comment ako.
