REPORT: DJ Moore in trouble with the law

And, no, speeding is not the same as shooting randomly in public. How do you even think that's true? Also he was speeding at 3am so while you're right that speeding is reckless and dangerous don't equate it driving over 100 downtown at noon.

I get what he's saying, but yeah, that analogy was comically ridiculous.

 

[Shocker]

The cop is probably lying.  I smell bacon.  Trying to get his name in the paper.

Good thing you didn’t kill a family of 6,..

its no different than shooting a gun randomly into public,..

i was always an expert shot in the Marines, worst score was 238 of 250, best was 244. I don’t miss, so I have control right?

so if I start popping off shots at traffic, but I “know” I won’t hit anyone, how would you react?

its no different driving a 3000 pound missile down the highway and thinking you have some kind of “control”

its just dumb luck every single time if you don’t kill someone,..

if you want to kill your self, go drive on a private course,.. don’t know don’t care.

but all of us have the right to get to work and drive our families places without the terror of having someone kill us because they have some sort of romance or self entitlement to public endangerment.

its the same with assholes that drive drunk, weave through traffic, text while driving,..

it should be a felony.

So speeding is the same as firing a gun in public, drinking and driving, texting while driving, and weaving through traffic recklessy?

 

You realize there is a road called the autobahn that does not have a speed limit, correct? In nowhere in the post did he mention he was weaving through traffic, texting, or drinking.

Lastly, on US1 there was statistic ran in 2011, that there were over 3000 drivers in one year that were gunned for over 100 mph, and that the police force was advised to not pursue for concern of people's safety. Of those 3000 drivers that were zapped for 100+ no one died or were in an accident.

Also, one more tid bit: Did you know that the majority of FATAL car crashes are actually not related to speeding at all?

So before you get on your high horse and start saying blasphemy as you just did, do some research. You have a better chance of someone running a red light and dying than a someone who gets a tickle from seeing how fast their car can go on a highway. 

 

Thank you for your service.

Wow this is an awful analogy. Shooting a gun off is the same as speeding now? 

 

Thank you for your service

In all my years of driving I have never once thought “wow that person going fast in a straight line staying in the left lane is really dangerous” but I often find myself beeping at people who are swerving over lanes just to pass them and see they are on their fuging cell phones. I would much rather have DJ (or anyone) speed and pay attention to the road then be like all these idiots going 70 (which is apparently not dangerous at all now) staring at their phone

Read my second post.  I was the only bike on the road.  Sure it was dumb but sometimes you have to grip it and rip it.  

Also thanks for your service.

I can't believe he played after this! His ass shoulda been sat. His ass should still be sat.

These kids count on their talent and status to get them off the hook when they're reckless and stupid, and that's something the Panthers culture should be against. I hope he gets suspended. I hope he gets fined. I almost hope he gets jail time.

I've seen a person with all the talent in the world throw it all away because he thought he was untouchable. He was king poo of big dick mountain. And he had an entire school of enablers (including coaches and teachers) who looked the other way at his behavior because they didn't want to put his future at risk. Lot of good that did him. Now the former number 2 dual-threat QB in the nation, and MVP of the state championship is an assistant high school football coach because his behavior finally caught up with him.

I want the best for DJ. I want him to have a great career. I want him to be successful as a Panther, and in life.

So I hope they throw the book at him.

The autobahn?

Seriously?

People that drive there, and I have a few times have severe penalties for not adhering to their rules.

2. People sign up for that when they choose to drive on it. 

Check out the Autobahn rules,..

https://brandongaille.com/17-fascinating-autobahn-accident-statistics/

Its a felony punishable for 5 years in prison for driving reckless.  You cannot weave in and out of lanes, cant force or coerce another car to drive faster to get out of your way, you must stop if another car is disabled, a felony for driving your car on the autobahn if your inspections arent up to date,.. it goes on and on.

And they have cameras everywhere, even basic tickets are really expensive with 3 month loss of license minimum, and you arent getting out of them because of an attorney.

Its not the same. Maybe if we had the same laws here, cameras everywhere, ban people from weaving through traffic, and make it felonies for reckless driving then it may help.

 

 

[Lumps]

What if he hit a killed someone?

Why are things not a big deal just because nothing happens? If drunk drivers don't hit anyone is it a big deal?

Proactive vs. Reactive is the equivalent to intelligent vs. stupidity

I have many buddies working on 77 right now and people who do this stupid poo make their lives more dangerous than it needs to be, for no reason.

Its the romance with reckless driving and drinking while driving in this country that creates failure to see them as the same thing.

In both instances its making avoidable and unnecessary risk to others all while acting like you are in control or entitled. 

A car going even 45 miles per hour has 100 times more energy than a bullet, and is far more likely to result in fatalities but somehow its not the same thing?  Why, its car versus a bullet?

Anyway, heres an article on a study,.. just for a few that I read that said whats the difference in driving 113 when everyone drives 80 anyway:

https://www.automotive-fleet.com/driver-care/239354/driver-care-how-speeding-affects-accident-impact

Just going to 80 instead of 70 increases the likelihood of a crash by 30+% and the probability of death by 71%.

The energies for 75 miles per hour versus 25 are 9 times as much, not 3 times as much. 113 is actually 3 times as much energy as 80 miles per hour.

Anyway, its dangerous to others, yet people generally laugh it off, think its cool somehow,.. 

reckless driving and endangerment should be a felony like it is on the Autobahn like so many here keep making references to.

This isn't clickbait ESPN. It's an internet forum.  That headline is a joke.  Grow up.

Obviously the faster you’re going the less reaction time you have. That doesn’t really change anything though. If you’re going 80 or 110 and someone swerved into your lane you’re going too fast to do anything about it either way. 80 is a deadly speed just as much as 110 and the person driving with their head up their ass would be at fault not the person speeding on a highway. If you want to be able to react to everything perfectly in a split second I suggest staying off the highway and never going over 45 mph

Not true and the physics and statistics say it isnt:

https://www.automotive-fleet.com/driver-care/239354/driver-care-how-speeding-affects-accident-impact

A car going even 75 miles per hour has 9 times as much energy as 25 miles per hour, not 3 times.  Just going 80 instead of 70mph increases the likelihood of death in a crash by 71%.

Its the deceleration,... just physics.

And wrecks are 31% more likely just 10miles over, 80 versus 70. At 113 these numbers are much higher.

And telling someone to stay off highways that their tax dollars pay for is just self entitlement. We all have the right to drive to work safely, drive our families as safely as possible.

Everyone else has more needs than the want of someone to have a cheap thrill.

Again, just as on the Autobahn as people keep referencing,... it should be a felony to drive reckless and 5 years in prison.

Hell, even with no speed limit, if drivers are all at 100 KPH, and a car flashes lights at them to move over and rides their ass to move, thats a 3 month suspension, a $600 ticket that an attorney cant get you out of, and its on camera-- which they have everywhere there.

everything you just said has nothing to with this argument. Again, as I said before no one posted that he was reckless driving and weaving in and out of lanes. It was you that implied the whole more dangerous than a bullet being shot in public, drinking and driving, texting and driving and weaving in and out lanes.

 

The argument is speeding vs not speeding and your declaration that speeding is more dangerous than all of the above, and statistically it is not. bottom line. no argument, just facts.

 

Also Jarrod, the articles defends the autobahn more than it hurts it. Clearly states only 4 states in the USA are safer than the autobahn when it comes to car accidents.

There are still people out at that time of night (obviously he was) but because of the time of night, you're less likely to expect to see them.

Thinking there's nobody around reduces the amount of "alert", and as a result causes a fair share of accidents.

There's no defending this. It was stupid, moronic even, and yes it could have gotten himself or somebody else killed.
