    They do, but I suspect that the overwhelming majority that get dealt with in this way are around the 17/25 mark, hence " boy racers ".

    Mature people generally do not drive around the streets in tarted up junk in a moronic fashion.

    So because I am only 20 you would tar me with the same brush and deem me to be a boy racer then?

    Not at all, the overwhelming majority of 17 / 25 year olds are decent, honest people that care about the community.

    It is just the very few morons that seem to think that they are a law unto themselves that I was referring to as " boy racers ".

    Which is what this thread was discussing, in the first place.
  • Good reply inactive, I almost got angry then, like a boy racer with an S59 ;)
