Re: Maryland Street Race Kills 7!
nope...the people racing and burnouts had nothing to do with the crowd going in the middle of the road...they made that choice on their own, there was no prerequisite saying that at the end of a race step out in the middle of the street

Re: Maryland Street Race Kills 7!
i love street racing, i'd rather race on the street that go to the track, but big groups of people are stupid. if your going to do it, find a place of road and dont stay there long, if they were there long enough to have 50 people standing on the side of the road, it was too long. they were doing it at the right time of day, but if you must go from a dig, stop, heat up the tires, and get it done, dont wait around, dont bring a crowd, your only asking to get hurt, or caught.
no matter how you look at it, this is a street racing related accident, if the people hadnt been there, it wouldnt have happened.
maybe the news channels shold have titled it "Driver crashes through crowd of people gathering at a sports event"

bottom line, they shouldnt have walked out into the road. i dont think the driver should be held accountable, but thats up to a judge, not me.

Re: Maryland Street Race Kills 7!
here is the deal, the race was over allready, there was no smoke left. there were just people still standing on the starting line.. "suposidly" the white car was allready runing from the cops for something hince why he didnt have any head lights on. and he was arested for dui when the cops got there...
the people still shouldnt have been in the road though.

Re: Maryland Street Race Kills 7!
the driver could have helped prevent it too, but my point is if the street racers wernt there this would have never happened.

Re: Maryland Street Race Kills 7!
im sorry dude, but your full of crap if your trying to say its NOT the street racers fault, if there wasnt tons of people standing in the road this would have never happened. this is 100% the street racers fault. yes, maybe the car should have stopped if he supposedly tried to drive throught the smoke, but still, if the cars hadnt been there street racing, didnt do burnouts, and wasnt people there this wouldnt have happened.
so keep blaming it on the street racers... who the fuck drives under conditions where they can't see ahead of them? That's the drivers fault, and from what I understand, he wasn't street racing.

I don't disagree, I never said the media were wrong. However your post were making it seem like the guy wasn't at fault at all.
He took his chances and he should go to jail since the gamble didn't pay off.
You even said the street racers were 100% at fault in the post I quoted.

Re: Maryland Street Race Kills 7!
rolls are a much safer way to race if you ask me. provided theres no traffic on the road.
