2 kids died on my street today while street racing!
Really sad. It happeded in Coral Springs, in a school zone too.
I feel really bad for the families. The body's were covered up and one kid was edjected from the car. The car was a smashed up ball. It was a hard thing for me to see.
Just another reason why street racing is stupid. I blame these Fast and the Furious movies.
To make the movies more realistic they should have a few death's in them.
Here's the story.

As long as no bystanders were hurt I see no harm done. Gotta have some way of cleansing the earth if nature cant do it all.. Sorry I have no remorse for kids like this......to me its just 2 less kids on the road that could have killed my daughter. I am so sick and tired of yelling at kids speeding through my neighborhood.

I agree with you, but what happens when innocents get involved?

I have lost track of the number of high schoolers who have killed themselves, and/or their passengers, in only the last two weeks here in the Washington, D.C. (suburban) area. Parents need to take some of the responsibility and blame.

My patience for street racing has gone down the tubes. Have I been street racing before... yes. But but when kids [refering to their maturity level] start doing this on crowded streets, in neighborhoods and DURING THE DAY TIME, that when I call the life guard and ask them to be removed from the gene pool.

Coral Ridge Drive is surrounded by 4 schools. It's a posted 40mph zone with some sections listed at 35mph. It is also all residential.
I feel bad for his passenger, who may have wanted nothing to do with what had happened.
The Police need to impound street racers vehicles for at least 3 month's, and also take away their licences. I know most of us here don't always obey posted speed limit sign's, And I am one of
them. Unfortunately poor judgement runs rampant. There is a time and place for this kind of behaviour, and this wasn't one of them.

Agree...and disagree.
As the Tech Advisor on BOTH Fast & Furious movies, I can tell you that the studio was VERY concerned about illegal street racing. They did all sorts of things to show consequences, offer alternatives, even did Public Service Announcements.
The movies are not to blame, IMHO.
Society and its' members need to take responsibility for their own actions: parents who give kids fast cars are partly to blame. Parents who don't spy on their kids and monitor their activities as often as possible are partly to blame. Ultimately, the person who commits the act is to blame.
Its' tragic when young lives are lost. If I were governor, teens would be required to go to Skip Barber driving schools for a week, as would all new drivers from foreign countries. Teens' cars would have 65 mph government installed speed limiters and first time offenders would be banned from driving until 21. All immigrants would have to pass an English test and all DMV driving testers would be Skip Barber instructors.
That's my soap box preaching for the day.
Condolences to the families.
