[and B ]
It’s bad enough that urban design requires people to operate regular cars on a daily basis, let alone sports vehicles.
Sale and advertisement of these cars enables and inspires deadly driving. It also encourages fuckwits to blast my ears with their exhaust and poison the air with tyre smoke.
I used to be a car enthusiast (but moved away from it for reasons unrelated to this subreddit) and even I’d scratch my head thinking “what’s the point if I can’t drive fast?”
“But I’m ‘in control’ of my car”. Maybe, but unless you’re on a closed course—be it a race track or sanctioned touge—you’re putting others at risk. This isn’t Initial D. Moreover, think of all the dickheads who can’t control their car.
The only cars on the road should be those with the minimum power necessary to accelerate and maintain the speed limit. Sports cars are for sports, not for getting from A to B.
Agree/Disagree? What are your thoughts?
Not to mention the noise they make. I frequently hear hooligans with fart cans strapped to their cars speeding past.
These modifications are illegal in my country but it never gets enforced.
IMO they should make noise level part of WOF. If your car is loud enough to damage the hearing of everyone in its presence it should be banned from the streets.
