After crashing my 306 (kinda good cos now i got a nice new saxo and part of saxp) into a tree, Iv ended up being threatened by the bizzies with like 3 offences which could sum up to 9 points! They gave me the choice of:
1, try to fight them in court
2, change identity and flee to cuba and live as druglord for the rest of my life
3, do a "advanced" driving course
well obviously number 2 sounds cool but i couldnt be arsed, so iv got to do a driving course thingy which my mate said is doing skids and other shit but i reckon its gonna be going back to the basics, how the hell after nearly 1 1/2 years of racing am i gonna go back to being a "ideal motorist"?!
spose its better than losing my licencse, anyway i got 2 things to make clear.
trees are not soft
and
f**k the police!

i fail to see how the police are the bad guys here im afraid. You hit the tree and they must feel you were driving dangerously so are sending you to do this course. Which by the sounds of it may do you good??

Have to say I agree, too.
You wrap your 306 round a tree, which wasprobably due to thinking you could take a 90degree corner at 80mph in the wet.
Or you actually drive that badly at 30mph in the dry.
At least if you do the advanced driving you will know that you might have a chance of missing the next tree. Or actually driving carefully every time you get behind the wheel.
