Yea, it must be rough to be stuck driving a million dollar, 200 MPH Bugatti...on public roads. That poor sap.

If you’re going to drive anything that blindingly fast you need to pay attention to it. What a maroon.
We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.

I stand in awe of the pure craftsmanship and dynamic engineering that has gone into the Bugatti Veyron. The hours spent checking it's aeordynamics in state of the art wind tunnels and finely tuning each milimetre of carbon fibre so that is sails through the air with the greatest of ease. Rare animals have gone extinct to perfect the finest upholstery and new additions have been made on the periodic table to construct the interior of a vehicle that only NASA could ever wish to steal the patents for. Huge swathes of rubber trees have been decapitated to produce the finest tyres capable of sticking to the road like spiderman in a glue factory and artisans have produced suspension to give that riding on silk feel to the most advanced automobile seen since Enzo Ferrari made his fist go cart. Two little design flaws have dogged the Bugatti team though...amphibious capability and a little gizmo called the hands free mobile phone!  Seriously - £1+ million pounds for the car and the cheapskate couldn't even couch up a few quid for a bluetooth headset. Criminal, purely criminal.
Before the war on terror, if I saw an unattended package I used to think "I'll be having that!"

Nah, Graham. I don't think it was a manner of money here. Nope, you see, NOT UNTIL doctors possess the capability to somehow synthetically cultivate and then surgically implant the proper nodules deep within the cranial structure which would impart and regulate thoughts that are commonly referred to as "Common Sense" should we consider the possibility that "money" might have come into play here. 
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

I guess my insurance payments will go up now to offset their financial loss on that one! 
And you may see me tonight

I thought you meant the poor hard working individual that had to ruin his work boots to go hook up the car to be towed out and probably didnt even get a tip from the Bugati Driver....

 Eh, it's a car. It is still a cage with wheels whether it costs 20K or 1.2mil. I would have more sympathy for a Harley than that. Well maybe not.

Yep, sucks to be him. Got enough money to drive a car like that, not enough brains to operate it even at normal speeds. Video proves it.
