R.I.P. Paul walker

wow didnt that dude from jackass die after he crashed that same type of car????

Ryan Dunn was shitfaced and wadded up a GT3, not a Carrera GT. He killed his friend driving drunk. Paul Walker's friend killed him driving recklessly, not drunk.

Either way, two people lost their lives because of the poor decision making of others.

Who ever claims not having any sympathy or sorrow for the man behind the wheel must be confused. Both these individuals derserve equal sympathy. EVERYBODY on here has driven "recklessly". Accidents happen. They don't change the fact that both these human biengs or in this case the DRIVER was a good man. Rip to roger and Paul.

Bottom line types of speed these guys were doing to rip car apart was not acceptable for street. I feel sorrow for them and their families but hey man they made bad decision. If I biff it doing 100 on street I don't expect sorrow from people who don't know me personally. People would be free to call me an idiot. So why is Mr Rodas off limits? He was just another guy making stupid move on street. FYI I never speed excessively with passengers. ...Never. I have seen north of 150 mph on deserted road by myself with miles of visibility with no traffic but let's say I had blow out and rolled. I'd just be another asswad driving way to fast on the street.

I hear about all the emotional denials of drag racing but you don't have to drag race to be dangerous on surface streets. I suspect they will find that car was moving way too fast and just got away from driver. The debris spray seen in pics indicates very fast speeds. I feel sorry for Paul as I believe he wouldn't have put someone in danger like mr rodas did. And fact he had teenage daughter is tough too. Feel very bad for her.

Also consider if mr rodas had survived and Paul died I suspect manslaughter charges or wrongful death suit would have happened.

I'm not here to argue the fact that what rodas did was wrong. I never said he was right. Reports say he was doing 45 on a 15mph curve. Was it higher? Lower? We will NEVER know even though I think it was a lot higher then that. Some say it was a malfunction. What I meant by accidents happen is that Mr. Rodas did not jump on the car on a mission to kill someone. It was an ACCIDENT. That does NOT change who he was as a man. He was actually paul walkers racing partner. Long time friend. What he did was wrong, and what everyone else does is wrong as well. We ALL know tons of street races take place with these high performance cars, Ugr lambos, ams gtr's, vipers, camaros, supras all over highways all over forums and states. And people ROOT for these competitions and we see it on THESE forums All the time. My point was not to let this accident CHANGE a good person to looking like a scumbag. If you haul *** like you stated even on your own, and had an ACCIDENT and god forbid passed away I would morn a loss not sit and say that your a criminal with no right to deserve sorrow. Accidents happen and unfortunately in this case two lifes were lost.

And I agree that your still responsible as a driver for the damages done to yourself and others and are held accountable for a persons injury.

Dom: Because the buster kept me out of handcuffs, he didn't just run back to the fort, the buster brought me back

Mr Walkers estate and his daughter CAN sue the estate of Rodas for wrongful death.......just like the Bisset clan sued the Kennedy clan after the idiot flew his plane into the water. They can sue for future earnings for the daughter and pain and suffering, loss of companionship being that she is a minor. In fact they may go after Porsche (who has not said a peep about any of this) aka deep pockets....

see this...http://www.tmz.com/2013/12/04/paul-w...ent-racetrack/

But they only paid 350K and admit no guilt.

^LOL

Porsche will say, the car is 8 years old. You bought it second hand,

I hope neither had to suffer very long. The report says both died within seconds after the crash.
