Aren't those just testing mules at the Arese compound?

Where is Danny Heatley's car???

Apparently, he was only doing 80mph and managed to split his Ferrari in half, tragically killing his friend and teammate.

Does anyone follow Hockey?? I feel so bad for this guy and the Snyder family, but could a Ferrari really split IN HALF, and the seatbelts fail only doing 80mph?

No and I have seen a picture of that car and yes I feel bad for the family of his mate that he killed but I do NOT feel bad for Dan Heatley ... what a complete d!ckhead!

As for the seatbelts failing and the supposed 80mph, I say BS ... there was nothing left of the car ... the seatbelt has to have something to hang onto to work.

Apparently he has crashed on exactly the same corner before!!!

I do not know whether he was drunk or whatever, but it is about time drivers of cars and bikes realised the responsibility they have for their passengers and other road users lives ...

Hope he spends many long boring years in some cell, where he can think about what his immature actions did to his mate and his mates family.

Might be a great hockey player, but that does not mean he is a great human being and deserves to be treated as such ... no respect from me.

Pete
ps: My sister died in a car accident (due to a trailer breaking, not a driver error) and so do many, many other innocent people (unfortunately many children) every year because the drivers think it is their God given right to play around on the road and take chances.

Didn't Pelle Lindberg (Spelling?) do the same thing with a P 930 in South Jersey in the mid 80's.

Anyone remember when Vince Neil, former lead singer of Motley Crue, killed his passenger, the drummer from Hanoi Rocks, while driving his Pantera drunk?
