After watching the video I wondered what others think about the following thoughts.
Should all drivers who wish to buy/drive a car above a certain power to weight ratio have to have a mandated say 1 day or more of instruction by an approved advanced driving trainer and be assessed as competent to drive such a hi powered vehicle before being allowed to buy??
Having the skill/ability to pay for any hi performance car does not automatically endow one with the skills to operate it safely especially if one starts to use most/all of the power/performance available in the wrong environment ie public roads IMHO
Sadly this will never happen but I thought my thoughts would hopefully start an interesting discussion of the pros and cons of my proposal and am sure will be some that will agree and others strongly opposed.
PS the idiot in the VW needs locking up for a long time IMO
