Racing is bad enough. . . but doing it on city streets (or undivided highway) is just plain stupid. It's endangering innocent people's lives to a VERY large degree. With a divider, at least you limit relative speeds and prevent head on collisions.

I actually feel very angry, i dont know, just heard a young couple, maybe husband and wife, or bf and gf, cruising on the street, maybe having a sweet talk, and out of the sudden, they both were sent to heaven, a senseless death, its just sad...this morning i was having brunch with friends, i just couldnt focus into their conversation thinking about this. honestly guys and girls, think twice before you start a race. if u get ticked off, get pass it, turn up your music and forget that fool next to you revving ____.

yeah, in california if you were the driver of the mini you would be charged with murder, not vehiclular manslughter, since it was premeditated and in the commision of a felony, this is a direct result of stupdidity. i dont feel sorry for the driver of the scion of his family, i feel sorry for the people in the camary.

too bad the driver of the scion did not kill himself by running into a wall.

Now do you see why the cops are cracking down on street racing? its tools like this who ruin it.

that's because street racing is illegal and unsafe as that article has already proved so.

wanna race? take it to the track.
