An adrenaline rush, an ego boost, a false sense of worth, and selfish gratification with no regards for the safety of others. An unnecessarily dangerous risk taking mentality that needs to change.

I want this tragedy to have a positive impact and deter others from reckless driving," he said.The lawyer representing Frankie Hough's family said that Iqbal, who has been ordered to serve 12 years in prison, has been left with a lenient aftermath following the devastating accident.ViralVdoz@viralvdoz#viralvdoz A man who filmed himself weaving through motorway traffic at 123mph just moments before he killed a pregnant mother-of-two has been jailed for 12 years. #AdilIqbal, 22, was driving with one hand and holding his phone with the other to film a video #London pic.twitter.com/5QPw82LF4e2#viralvdoz A man who filmed himself weaving through motorway traffic at 123mph just moments before he killed a pregnant mother-of-two has been jailed for 12 years. #AdilIqbal, 22, was driving with one hand and holding his phone with the other to film a video #London pic.twitter.com/5QPw82LF4eThe late actress' father also delivered an emotional statement, where he said that he spent two sleepless nights "holding Frankie's hand and begging her to come back, all the time knowing that this wasn't going to happen."I promised Frankie that I would always protect her, and on that day, someone else broke my promise. I don't think I can ever forgive him for that, but I know I will never truly forgive myself. I am trapped in a very long tunnel, and I can't see any light at the end," her father said. As of writing, Hough's GoFundMe page has raised £54,760 out of the £60,000 goal.
