eldo 868 Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 If he wasn't endangering other people then who cares. Everybody likes to speed. He has a Ferari so why not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duppy Conqueror 1,557 Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 ah great..even frank acting like a twat now...can`t condone speeding unless there`s a legitimate reason for it..e.g wife/girlfriend giving birth..one of his kids needed urgent medical treatment.otherwise it`s just like with drink driving, it`s an arrogant selfish act.nobody got hurt this time..hope he learns from it. he is smarter than the average footballer,so there`s hope.

Aesthetic Relic 301 Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Why?Speeding is ok ?Seriously.......think about it for a minute. He was doing almost twice the limit and you're not even allowed to drive that fast on the motorways. He was bloody stupid. You could understand and be a little bit sympathetic if he was 5-10mph over the limit, but doing 90mph in a 50mph zone is carnage waiting to happen. He's lucky he didn't kill someone. I drove for a living and seen some really nasty shit on the roads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zolayes 14,489 Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 expect Frank to show more sense than this ..if you want to speed become a F1 driver or an ambulance driver ,,,then speeding can be justified Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I drove for a living and seen some really nasty shit on the roads.No. I said if he wasn't putting other people in the danger. I'm well against irresponsible driving, like drunk driving or driving under the influence of drugs, speeding in built up areas.But if you are on open empty road and the conditions are right ( dry surface, good tyres and breaks). In some situations even those 5-10 mphs are enough for an accident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In some situations even those 5-10 mphs are enough for an accident.How can you be against irresponsible driving but say it's ok to speed if you have a clear road, dry conditions, etc...? Speeding is speeding end of. There's no backdoors imo. He was putting people (and himself) in danger as soon as he decided to put the boot to the floor.
