I am pretty sure taking out a pedestrian/car/house/solo vehicle accident at 130 will also void your insurance.
Look, even at 3 in the morning, you can easily hit someone. People get into accidents all the time at that time, even though they are the only 2 cars on the road. I do not know how it happens, it just does. What about if your parents are coming home late? What would happen if they were hit by someone doing 130?

My dad was rear ended on the autobahn by someone going about 160.
Maybe you guys should first find out what outskirt Omaha neighborhood looks like....
I've lived out here long enough to know where I can, and can't play.
Eh, it's all private property technically, so the insurance company wouldn't be much help there anyways

Yeah, I am looking it from the practical/parental side. Dad being rear ended on the Autobahn is one thing - he knew what he was up against at those speeds. Junior being run down by someone doing 130 ANYWHERE in the U.S. (highest speed limit I am aware of is 70 to 75) is a whole different story. I am pretty sure Omaha roads were not designed for any of those speeds, let alone the outside factors, fuzzy critters, other drivers and such.
As for insurance - there is NO WAY to justify what you are doing PERIOD. If you crash at any of those speeds, there is no way to hide it. I also assume you are on your parents coverage. You crash, THEY lose their coverage, THEY lose their cars, THEY lose their house when they get sued by the other party.
Like I said, we all have done stupid things.

As i've been saying though... Yes I know it's stupid, you don't need to remind me of it.
