Accidentally killed a Yaris

I passed a Yaris going up a hill near my office building. As I was pulling into my parking lot about a half a minute later, it blew by me doing about 65 in 45 zone. He was obviously at WOT, and was unable to stay in his lanes (yes, plural

).

sure was a sight to see, a Yaris fully wound up flying through office buildings in rush hour

I had a 3cyl Yaris when I was in England a few years ago... drove from Bath to Stratford and back... what an experience! Took ages for it to get to speed...

LOL @ one actually speeding!

Yaris

LOL

I thought that the only way to make a Yaris go that fast was to drop if from a B52...
