Drag Racing

I can't get this out of my mind, so I will tell you about it.
The other day I was watching the news reporting on a horrific accident.
The two cars involved in this illegal street racing were a Lexus driven by a 16 year old permit holder and a BMW driven by an 18 year old dumbass.
Both cars had at least two extra passengers each.
One had a 6 year old in the back and I think the other had a 12 year old.
The BMW somehow lost control, hitting the Lexus and then ramming into a parked van.
I believe no one died, but two people were in critical condition rushed to a nearby hospital.
The body of the BMW was ripped off leaving only the wheels and the seats. It was very ugly to see.
After the accident the 18 year old, left uninjured, was texting on his phone while his mom slapped him across the head.

Both drivers will be criminally charged.

I don't know why people can't learn from this. So many people die every year because of speeders, drag racers, and other idiots.

Thinking about this unfortuante event led me to write this:

Stupidity

Stupid, stupid, you're so damn stupid
Look at all the crap you did

You smashed your car
and you killed that kid

This time you took it too far
Stupid explains what you are
