Default Fallen Teg owner

Other night some guy was driving down 595 in Ft. Lauderdale, Fl. Apparently he was speeding, flipped his '91 Teg over, he was pronounced dead. Cops thought he was racing, turns out he was just speeding. This hit me hard since I own a 93 Teg, and realized I do go a lil heavy on the gas. I send out my regards to his family, and hope that atleast we all take a moment to reflect upon our driving methods and hope it doesnt happen to us Tegs Forever

unfortunatley the only way to stop someone from speeding when they daily drive is for something drastic to happen. unfortunatley this guy couldnt learn from his mistakes.

I learned my lesson speeding downhill in my Legend. Turns out that driving a heavy car with cruddy brakes equals disaster. Damn good car though, stood up like a champ.

thats why i dont drive so hard in regular streets with traffic, only time i drive hard is when im alone with no one to harm, and i dont take my car to its limits because i drive on twisites sometime around my area, i dont speed though because im constantly shifting from 3rd to 2nd in the twsities here

I can't stand driving slower then 60mph, but there is a time to drive fast and there is a time to drive at regular speeds, when other people are driving at regular speeds. Just because I risk my life, no need to risk anybody else with my bad habit. R.I.P
