With his speedometer reading 120 kilometers per hour, his turbo fully engaged, deafening pop sounds ripping through the dark of night, and his adrenaline goading him to change lanes at will, this Subaru driver “cared less” about the safety of other motorists, but cared more about his ego, which was being bruised by the Subaru driver ahead of him.

To him, it was a kooky do-or-die contest. To authorities, it was harebrained recklessness.
