...says a mother of a car crash victim. Watching top gear makes young impressionable drivers think its cool to speed. Discuss. (apologies if this has been posted already)
 
They should simply put a warning at the start of the show, if you have an IQ of 50 or less you shouldn't watch this show.

Problem solved.
 
Speeding is cool. I take it this lady watched Top Gear and went for a propper hoon in her Kia Ceed, b0. Little did she know, every time you drive a Kia Ceed, God tries to kill you.
 
18 year olds have been doing 60mph in a 30 trying to impress girls in the backs of their cars with no seatbelts on for generations.

Even back in the day when top gear was headed by a bearded Chris Goffey musing about the merits of rovers interior build quality.
 
I hate it when people try to blame human stupidity on tv, gaming etc. They arent easily led they are just idiots.
 
I have been looking to use the word ****nugget in a thread for a while now. Just needed the right thread. The ones who make excuses for people who are obviously idiots are ****nuggets. The scum would speed and drive recklessly even if top gear was cancelled.
 
Top Gear was boring car reviewing rubbish (apart from the rallycross bits) when I was a teenager, yet I would fly round corners sideways like an idiot in Ford Escorts anyway.
 
Load of crap, I have been watching TG for years, I have JC Apocalypse and The Most Outrageous Jeremy Clarkson Video In The World...Ever on VHS in the draw, I was 15 when I bought them and watched them every month, I have been driving 9 years and never crashed so in theory I should have died going 500 mph with a helicopter chasing me, while driving a TVR on acid and acid poured into the petrol tank, some people in mourning will blame anything they can
 
Just file it with "video games made my child shoot up his school". What are we ment to do? Wrap up all the teenagers in cotton wool? idiots
