• pat says I pity the man. I hear the one of the aides are dead. Tsk tsk. The speed? It should have been fast. You need a fairly quick speed to smash through a concrete post and 3 coconut trees, if I'm not mistaken. As for the car, that just added to one of the already many reported GTR crashes worldwide.

• cvc-grl says isnt that a two-seater? why weree there three of them in the car? (22 May 2009)
• pat says The Nissan GT-R is a 4-seater coupe. In layman's terms, 2 doors, 4 seats. (22 May 2009)
• imacarnut says nice cool fast car, but bad accident... It must be that hard too handle a GTR to crash like that, or someone should relearn his skills in driving. (23 May 2009)
• Iancmv says Hi-tech, good handling, full safety equiped car...Wreckless driver...No matter how safe / stable a car is, it's still the driver that steps on the gas pedal. (23 May 2009)
• rochie says lancmv: right on! that's 9 million worth of scrap metal to the junk yard. (24 May 2009)
• keen says well i guess we wont be needing the gtr's black box on this one. (25 May 2009)
• red says he was definitely driving really fast to wreck a GTR, its a super car, its loaded with safety features and its one of the most stable super cars ever built. he shouldn't have been driving THAT fast with other people on board if he couldn't handle a GTR... he should get a (25 May 2009)

• cyndi says so what did the authorities say? someone died. there should at least be a police report, right? (26 May 2009)
• JR says for me, running at a very fast speed (i.e. 180kph-220kph) is not bad specially if your car was made to go fast like the GTR. But of course, it depends on the weather and road condition. Let's say the speed of richard's GTR before it crashed was 140 kph. It's very dangerous to do it in Santa Rosa-Tagaytay Road in Silang, Cavite. it's like a speeding car in a zig-zag road! you can safely hit up to the GTR's top speed if you're in NLEX, Star Tollgate or SCTEX.

• CaptSlow0310 says so he survived. . . what a pity. . . he doesn't deserve that car. . . driving like a maniac & not responsible enough to practice road safety by having his passenger buckle up. . . why should the guilty always survive & the innocent get killed? (09 June 2009)
