Yesterday my son and I attended the funeral of a 13 year old girl who went to school with my son. She was hit crossing the street, in the crosswalk, by a speeding teenager.
In January my cousin was hit on the sidewalk in front of his house and killed in front of his two grade school age children, by a speeding teenager.
Sorry, I have no sympathy for a "scared" and "bruised" teenager who was "squealing tires", and who "pulled into the middle turning lane, passed him and four other cars, and continued on at double the legal speed limit."
If he wasn't acting like a dangerous a$$, then he wouldn't have any reason to be scared, now would he? Obey the law and you have nothing to worry about. Better he be a little scared and learn a lesson, then kill a pedestrian or passengers in another car.

"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
