  3. Sadly, best we can hope for is that these pricks speeding in our village will crash their vehicles and become disabled to the extent they can never drive again to disturb people. Every time we hear of one of them crashing and dying, it’s a good thing.

  5. He is genuinely a very good kid, who made a bad decision. Yall are crazy wishing he crashes to the extent he can’t drive again. They trumped his charges too. But let the repeat woman beaters out on a PR Bail or if anything 2k. Disgraceful. This kid has never gotten in trouble with the law, or even at school like this is ridiculous. Throw an ankle bracelet on the kid n call it a day he’s got school Monday.
