Don't give your 16-year old a BMW!
Another senseless tragedy-
A 16 year old decided it would be fun to see how fast the BMW would go on a road that parallels the runway of a local airport. Nice, long straight road...... With an S curve towards the end, with a steep drop-off into a stand of trees.
He had three passengers with him. Story is they went up and down the road a few times, having fun. Last one didn't go so well.
He is now dead, a teen-age girl is in a coma, and two more teens are also in the hospital.
Lots of students from their high school have been gathering at the site for the last couple days.
Just one moment of poor judgement, and life is changed (or ended) forever.
When my daughter starts driving, she will NOT be driving anything like a BMW. And she WILL attend a driver's skills school at the track.
