It is about time that the government did something about street racing. Now what they should do is apply to motorcycle riders too. There have been too many times that I have been on the highway, and then out of the blue a bike just flies by. How many more people have to die, or end up in a vegetable like state for the this new law to apply for them too.
I hate these jerks in their little honda civics racing all over the place!!!!
The other day I was driving down the 400 and these two jerk offs went FLYING past me, one on my left, and one on my right, while my whole car pretty much shook!!!!
Then I told off this a$$hole in an M3 that was so close on my a$$ that I couldn't even see his headlights. He then proceeded to gun it up the MIDDLE of Leslie to pass everyone that apparently was going "too slow".
You know, I really don't care if these guys have really expensive flashy cars but if they're going to be driving like their an F1 driver in a school zone or where there are so many lives at stake, just thrown em in jail and throw out the key!!!
IT'S ABOUT DAMN TIME THEY PASSED THIS NEW LAW!!!! F@CKING LOSERS!!!!!!!!!!!
