Pics like this make me proud to pay my taxes.
Like I said, the one's who weren't will say "it'll never happen to me," and be back out next week.
Where there's a will, there's a way. Especially, when 3 of them were affected. There are plenty of people who would talk. There ALWAYS are. Always.
I'd bet you the amount of dollars if and when they decide to fine ALL OF THE SPECTATORS WHO LEFT THE SCENE, that kids around the nation will be a little more wary of what they do at 2am, nonetheless. If this gets to the news in the same way that boy's suicide did, I bet it would have a positive affect.
Aren't enough + signs in the world. Nor numbers.
WRC and street racing are completely different. 95% of the 60+ people never even thought that one of those cars would have an issue, when 95% of the spectators in WRC know damn well that those cars...I'm not even sure how you thought they were alike...the cars in rallies are barely ever even on asphalt—the risk is…
Exactly. I replied to someone earlier saying "...And while I am sure 1 or 2 of the 60+ learned a lesson (not to stand close to racing cars), they need to be taught another lesson—NOT TO SPECTATE STREET RACING, and in turn making street racing less popular, which will then save lives..
"In fact many street racers go to elaborate lengths to avoid both spectators AND authorities."
Like I said, if they did not provide a statement or sign their name and just left, they should be punished. The several you speak of did not leave the scene, so I don't see any problem.
How about the girl that encouraged that boy to commit suicide. She wasn't even near him, nor did she buy a weapon or physically murder him. She encouraged him. Well, what do you call 60+ kids lining a sidewalk with 2 cars in the road? Encouragement.
Same exact story with my sister. And yes, I did mean stress, to your other comment! I clarified in my response to Cone.
I agree we have a bit too many laws, but if we do not enforce punishment upon spectators, we're not going to save any lives—considering the laws barring street racing clearly don't deter.
Respect. I did mean pressure on the brain in the forms you describe, my being unclear, sorry!
"It'll never happen to me," and they'll be at the next race next week. Don't be too naive.
My sister does and her two dreams are skydiving and scuba—neither of which her doctor approves due to the pressures involved. Email sent.
Lastly—there's no agreeing or disagreeing that the driver should be punished. The driver, regardless of the word driver or what they were doing, committed murder. Of course, they'll be punished. That's exactly the reason I raise the spectator issue. They were there, too, knowing street racing is a crime—and then, when…
I am very chill. I think it's time we start saving lives. Totally cool with those two guys racing...no big deal there. Happens everywhere all the time. The problem is the crowds that gather to watch. And..now, two got hit by one car and died, while a third seriously injured. Just saying. Time to start cracking down on…
If you don't "go medieval" on this group, they'll be out next week watching another race. Why? No punishment, no lessons learned. There are not too many laws. The law is that it's illegal to street race, along with reckless driving and speeding. So we nailed that one down, right? Now, since we know people BREAK that…
Exactly...in whatever English you chose to use there. The two killed were not "supposed" to be there, nor were any of the others. But, the "popularity" that's glorified this street racing must be tackled.
