I have in-laws who are in their late teens and early twenties who if they had the chance would likely do the same. How much of this is due to the video game generation? It is only in recent years that so much of this happens. It is sad. Very sad. It is a commentary on what has become of modern America.
This is also sad for the parents of this kid and the parents of the others who died with him. It is sad for the parents that they did not secure that car better. It is sad just imaging how it would be if it were in my family. It is sad that people can have a cavalier attitude about such a preventable tragedy.
There are several families that will be deeply affected by this for many years. Yes, it is sad on so many levels.

Yeah that never happened in the 60's and 70's during the muscle car era.
It is the same old things happening. We are just more "mediatized" andbecome less sensitive about things due to an information overload. Same goes for violent crimes.
As for the original story of this thread My thoughts are with the families of thoses kids that had all their lives ahead of themselves. Tragic.
