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.

I wish the driver of the scion would BURN IN HELL for this.... just plain stupid....

One thought is heaven, one thought is hell..... a same way to think, but yet so different.....

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

wanna race? take it to the track.
