I was just watching the news and supposedly this accident that just happened a few hours ago was caused by street racing. The Explorer involved was totaled as well as what looked like an accord. they said 1 person died on the scene and more people were taken to the hospital in critical condition. when will these morons learn...

they caught a ton of people racing a few days back, a mile or so away from the crash too.

I'm sure the explorer had chromes too.

I dont think the Explorer was racing, i think they were caught in the racing and got hit.

John, i think they said something about that, like 129 citations for racing not too far from the wreck scene.

the paper said that on tuesday 149 people were ticketed for being a spectator at an illegal street race, officers wrote 56 other traffic tickets, and at least 3 people were arrested. I like how the paper says where the racing takes place, that way everyone knows where to go to race.

Actually on I-4 last night in Orlando, FL. It was like fast and the furious all over. There was a civic hatch underneath a semi! heh it was a regular civic hatch so it was probably not related but I didn't think that happens. Probably caused it was raining and either one of them could of lost control. Pretty wild stuff. Well I hope no one got injured.
