Accidents can and do happen to people, no matter how good a driver they are as you say. But this 'accident' was a direct result of the way Haseem was driving. Owning and driving a powerful sports car does not turn most drivers in idiots who take foolhardy and obvious risks with other peoples lives.  The car no doubt had something to do with the amount of damage he caused. But I doubt things would be different if naseem had been a mediocre boxer and had been driving a hot hatch instead of a supercar, it just wouldn't have been of such interest.

DIVA Â Â 10 #242 Posted May 14, 2006 Â from his postings on this thread i'm not under the impression that carl has behaved as a self-appointed moderator. far from it. he has voiced his opinions and other people have criticised those opinions, to which he has refrained from responding inappropriately. Â Â The White Rose, please read my posting properly before responding. If you had done so this time, it might have saved you some time and effort. You took a quote from what I had said and conveniently omitted the rest of it as it obviously didn't suit your argument. As I clearly put in my posting, I was referring to what Carl_Malibu had done to someone on another related thread, which now seems to have gone. You obviously have not read what he wrote there, and, as your comment says, are making a judgement by what you have read of Carl on this thread which has no relevance to what I was saying. Next time, please read and don't try and make someone look like they're saying something else. I don't need you to speak for me.

Bruno   10 #245 Posted May 15, 2006 Abdul's excellent and highly informative post about the SLR begs another question:are such cars indirectly a danger to other road users?  In other words, if a driver knows that, in the event of a bad crash, he will walk away unscathed, will this not make him (consciously or unconsciously) more reckless at the wheel than otherwise?. This would likely to be particularly true of someone like Naz, who has a history of irresponsible and utterly selfish driving behaviour.   Have to say I got to this post, and without reading the rest good points were made here by LordC  Also I want to say Thanks ABDUL your posts on this thread have been brilliant reading Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
rothschild   10 #246 Posted May 15, 2006 Abdul.........I second what Bruno has said. Your posts on this thread have made brilliant reading. Not only on this thread but on others as well. I have come to rely on your posts as being consistently full of good common sense. You obviously go to great lengths to be correct and fair and I just know that if there is a post from you then it will be worth reading. Keep it up chuck.

RazorSHarp   10 #249 Posted May 15, 2006 Wonder what weight he'd be fighting at now? To say he announced his "comeback" last November (a short while after the accident) he does seem to have missed the opportunity to become a little less...umm... portly.  Surely he will have his boxing licence revoked as he has been sentenced to a stretch?

Dj_Shadowman   10 #250 Posted May 15, 2006 Have you seen this :  http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/tm_objectid=17078540%26method=full%26siteid=94762%26headline=exclusive%2d%2dnaz%2ds%2dlife%2dof%2driley%2din%2djail-name_page.html  Cant beleive it, the governer has blatently broken the rules by doing this.  Totally unbeleivable, he should have been in the induction wing for at least a week but he never even got there, being allowed to stay overnight in reception with his minders !  And then transferred to moorlands by a mercedes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
