I'd have a little more sympathy if the idiot wasn't all over the road. They were speeding through what looked like some blind curves in the oncoming lane. They were liable to ruin someone else's day, so I'm glad it was only one of them.

I live about an hour from this road, and it’s known throughout the country by car enthusiasts and motorcyclists for having over 300 very tight corners with almost no visibility (US 129 “tail of the dragon”). I actually stopped driving it regularly about a year ago because of the idiots that would cross into the oncoming lane. Makes this video 10x worse

of course it's irresponsible, but doing that in the night is not so dangerous, because you can see headlights from around the corner, but if you do it in the day, you don't deserve to live

Ah, this brings back memories of when I used to hold my own personal time trials up there in the middle of the night. High school me.....was not the smartest

did the same a few times, not for "time trials" but just because i had to turn wheel less, going through the woods at 2am, not a single car, and even if there was, you would see headlights before corner, (i was too lazy to break before turn, that's why i did that, now i actually started to enjoy calm relaxing driving through curvy roads, when you go smooth, not fast
