Default Penalty for Hit and Run? Death!

Saudis Will Behead Hit-And-Run Drifter

As you already know, hagwalah is dangerous and will likely kill you or tear off your limbs if you crash. The Saudi government is speeding up the process by sentencing a joyrider to death by beheading for killing two people in a stunt.

The Kuwaiti paper Al Watan reported that the middle-aged drifter identified as "Mutannish" (Arabic for "he who ignores") hit another car while drifting, killing two. He fled the scene and will be beheaded "as punishment for his heinous deed and to deter others who tamper with the nation's security," according to the report.

Chopping a guy's head off in public is certainly one way to discourage drifting on public roads.


suddenly don't want to drift in Middle East....

Maybe the higher ups have realised the constant idiotic videos they post on you-tube are making them look rather stupid?

all i can say is he probably deserves it if he has hooned just for the sake of annoying officials. he has killed two people already, who is to say he wont kill more if he drifts again.

One day bring what?

But have to say... prefer his hands were chopped off.. or his foot? But then he will be a burden to everyone....

Yeh I think beheading is a little extreme. Just take his arms off or something

hands off, foot off = burden to public
head off burden to pall bearers
I feel a little sorry for this bloke but I feel VERY sorry for the families of the people killed by his stupid behaviour
I cannot go along with stupid driving on public roads. One of my grandsons was killed a year ago by an idiot who could not use an indicator correctly

Pointless thread and turned into something that is even more worthless.

So if you want to beat em, ya gotta join em, and being manual makes the time even more credible.
