What's the Japanese translation for
"I suppose saying I'm sorry won't help, will it?"?
or
"Does that mean I'm not invited to the next outing?"

Re: 14 Exotics Stuffed on Japan Motorway!

No offense to the OP, but this is amusing how things go these days. This crash has been posted on every model forum I'm on. And shows up countless times on my Facebook page from everyone and every blogger, magazine, website posting about it as if they got the scoop and nobody else knows about it!

My 87 year old mother doesn't access a computer or internet, but I'll wager she knows about this crash because it seems to be the biggest single news event in world history

strangely enough, on a BBC morning show, they mentioned the incident and said something along the lines that the party encountered a car coming the other way along the motorway and the crash/es was caused by them suddenly trying to avoid it.
