HSV Test drive....

[Chicky]

This is what's left of a new VY HSV Clubsport at Watson Holden in Bundoora (Victoria) after a 19 year old test drove it last week.

He was driving it back and was going WAY too fast around the corner, up the gutter, travelled the 10 metres to the gates, mounted some cars and landed as you see.

Not sure how recent this is, but received this email this morning and thought it worth posting up.... Imagine the cost of the damage involved, and all for a test drive!

And a 19yr old driver at that... hmmm

This happened about three or so years ago. I was living around there at the time.

Sir as the car quite obviously went airborne, it was acting more as an aircraft so can I please see your Private Pilots License?

With any luck basic excess + age excess which should be about $2150 all up.

hence why 19 year olds shouldnt have High Performance Vehicles.....

My Opinion:
V6 Max for <21 yoa
V8 >21 yoa

I second that one.

But would even go 4cyl <21 yoa including NO turbos.

Some V6's still get up there ie: sv6

4cyl until 21 years is worth a shot considering the amount of young people we've lost on our roads lately...

Perhaps change the Probationary Phases....
P Driver (4 years) - 17 to 21 years of age...

P (Red) Phase I (2 years) -
P (Green) Phase II (2 years) -

I think its like Sydneys system but im not aware of how that works...but you could have a better flow and control...Also with Phase I .02 alcohol limit and with Phase II .05, so basically you work your way up.....
just an idea, hope it makes sence.

Nah... you can get 4 cylinder cars that can drive a 6 cylinder car into the dust. It needs to be a power to weight ratio thing.
