Default Saudi man sentenced to 3000 lashings and 20 years

Something tells me that if the U.S. did this sort of thing the road would be a little safer. Then again maybe not.

Quote:
The Saudi supreme court has upheld a verdict against Faisal Otaibi, known as "Abu Kab" (which translates roughly as "the guy with the baseball cap"), the disgraced naval officer found guilty of killing three people, two of them minors, in a stunt-driving accident four years ago.

Otaibi was sentenced to 3,000 lashes, 20 years in prison and a lifetime ban on driving after his car spun out of control during a "drifting" stunt, killing brothers Ahmed and Abdul Aziz, ages 14 and 11, and 18-year-old Ibrahim.

Illegal drag racing and stunt driving are hugely popular among young men in Saudi Arabia, fueled mostly by high unemployment, boredom and large expendable incomes.

It doesn't seem to make the roads in Saudi Arabia any safer.

I'm drunk as hell and 3000 lashings I know would kill a person if done at once. There would be no bone left on his back!
