Default green hulk wow

I touched a green one today boy does that colour make the blue one look plain.
I love walking into yards in dirty ruggers and stained t shirt nobody came near me.
Does anybody know what the deal is with green p plate drivers in NSW can they drive focus xr5's.
It's all confusing to me a 46 year old dad.

How do you know it was the drivers fault? How do you know someone wasn't killed or seriously injured.

Nope, P-platers aren't allowed to drive any turbo's, except diesels

Simply put i dont know.

What i do know is that the amount of damage that was caused and the way the front end looked, he would of had to be doing some silly speeds, or it just may of been wrong place, wrong time.

who knows, point is. ones already crashed.

I think the damage as bad as it may have been, most new cars look worse then what the accident actually was as that is the way they are designed to protect the occupants
