I agree 100%
I'm a car nut, and I love the sight & sound of the GT at speed. It's the fact that he's passing cars at 200mph that bothers me. If it had a completely clear highway it probably wouldn't bother me.
However, I think the fact that he films himself
commiting a crime begs for police attention. Youtube is full of videos like this... just search "200 mph" or "180mph". If I did something as reckless as that, there is no way I'd film it and post it online.
As for admissability of the online "evidence": How would you feel if someone bragged about driving after a drinking 6 pack, and posted a shot of their breathalizer results? Would you be comfortable that there's enough proof that a crime was committed?
I guess I'm sensitive to the issue because I live in a 30mph street, and regularly have people speeding past my house at 50-60mph. I am putting a stop to it though; I have a plan. I'm turning into the crotchety old man of the neighborhood.
