    The body of a dead street racer was left in full view as a deterrent to others.

    His Jag F Type hit a car then a tree throwing the driver out & then he was run over.

    The driver, 28-year-old Tao Lung, was speeding along in a £79,000 Jaguar F-Type when he crashed while trying to overtake another car.

    The two cars were speeding at over 150mph on the residential street when another car pulled out of a house, causing one of the two racers to crash after it failed to brake in time.When police arrived they did not cover up the body, but left it exposed in full view of the crowd.

    A resident said: 'I think they wanted to get the message across that driving like this has a cost, sometimes its more than someone might want to pay. I think that was why they left the body lying there for so long.'

    The corpse was left lying in the middle of the road for at least an hour in full view of pedestrians and other motorists, including children.

    Car wasn't too badly damaged, it's probably not fashionable to wear a seat belt in China, if he wasn't thrown clear he might have walked away.
    As for the cops tactics, probably method in their ways.

    Gore is fairly common on TV there. Nothing the kids wouldn't have seen before.

    I've had students bring a butterfly knife (12 y.o. girl) and nun-chukka (8 y.o. boy) to class. They were told to put them away until after class...
