German Mercedes Benz Drivers (or Killers)

remember rasser ralph? or was it rolph, whatever, the mad bastard test driver who wipped out a young mother and her three year old daughter because they wern't over taking quickly enough. well they've done it again. apparently in sweden one of them piled the car of the road killing another mother who was walking by the side of the road. their mechanics then removed all the test equipment from the car, you know the stuff that says how fast they were going etc. "we didnt want sensitive equipment to be damadged" sounds more like bloody cover up to me. whats the score keydeck?

as you can imagine i'm a wee bit sensitive to immature fucking idiots replacing their lack of self-esteme with a large car and then driving like a twat.

it was a mercdes test driver wasn't it? What was he doing going so fast in built up areas?

He's a 32 year old male in a fast car and I don't like making broad sweeping statements (well actually I do) but he obviously doesn't give a shit what happens outside his safety cage and beyond the airbag.

I'll be ranting in a minute now but I'm amazed that more accidents don't occur in Germany. All it takes is for some person to sneeze on the autobahn, everybody is driving too fast, and too close.

They should make people put in a shift in an accident and emergency ward before they get their driving licence.

Do the courts here have the option to either
- make someone retake their test after a ban
- send them on rehabilitation courses (to make them risk aware etc)
-send them to do shifts in A&E etc

or is it a simple fine and/or ban system.

It's the damn cross-hair sights on the front of the bonnet...
