You're breaking the law, you're compromising your (limited?) driving ability by holding a video camera while you're driving, you're putting members of the general public at risk (us) by driving recklessly (100 mph in dense traffic???!!!).

Incredibly stupid, incredibly careless, incredibly selfish. If you want to put yourself at risk, be my guest. But don't take the rest of us with you. I'm surprised you didn't video your trip through a school zone at 75mph.

Although I'm a relatively new guest in this forum, I've been quite impressed with the intelligence, responsibility, and knowledge represented here. This video showcases none of these attributes, in fact it insults them.

I enjoy the vicarious participation in driving, repair, modification, and other aspects of S2k ownership represented here.

Your video (and behavior) disgusts me.

ok guys this is drivers ed, keep both hands on the wheel now...

can you all honestly say you never go over the speed limit at all? come on now thats just dumb


honestly, i could care less if you guys think i shouldn't speed on public roads, i've probably been driving for longer than most of you on here


my check engine light is on for my air pump, big deal there guys lol


distracted driving is a funny one, i'm no noob around a camera, and for this video never looked at the camera once, i can tell what i'm shooting without looking through the viewfinder or at the phone......so distractions are not an issue there, no different than driving with one hand, which NO ONE can say they've never done that drive a manual


and to the stunt comment, that wasn't close to a stunt, put me in my old STI and i'll show you some stunts, on the other hand, no you might dirty the seats ya baby

I've gone over the speed limit. I don't know why it's video worthy. It's not impressive and since it is illegal and potentially dangerous, definitely not something to brag about.

honestly, i could care less if you guys think i shouldn't speed on public roads, i've probably been driving for longer than most of you on here
Most people who say they don't care what other people think are usually the ones that really do care. The type of person that posts up videos of poor driving online looking for praise. The type of person that gets angry when they don't receive such praise. Oh, and driving for longer doesn't mean better.

distracted driving is a funny one, i'm no noob around a camera, and for this video never looked at the camera once, i can tell what i'm shooting without looking through the viewfinder or at the phone......so distractions are not an issue there, no different than driving with one hand, which NO ONE can say they've never done that drive a manual
You say you're a good driver and good with a camera. Nothing from your videos makes me think you're good at either. The opposite in fact. Maybe you are an amazing driver or an amazing camera man. But not at the same time. So pick one because when you try to do both you are adding unnecessary risk.

You asked for our opinions. We gave them to you. Your videos aren't anything special. Just the typical poor driving videos we've seen a thousand times before -ricer type driving showing that they can hit 92 miles per hour (anyone with a broken mini-van can do that). No one is impressed.
