I would like to see that, i totally agree with the DUI.
I got a speeding ticket when i had my lexus, but the funny thing is that the cop pulled me over not the pick up truck that was almost passing me....

My boss mentioned something interesting today, after I had talked to him about this.

What about cars with loans/leins on them? You know, the ones that you don't own - that the bank technically owns?

Or what if you let JoeBlow your best buddy borrow it for a night and it gets involved in something like this?

There's too many issues that I can see with this entire situation. Like I said before - the whole thing just stinks.

i thought it was crushed due to the fact that there were stolen parts on them?

the car crushing of a friends friend in Long Beach got his car crushed solely for the fact of having a stolen transmission and suspicion of street racing

How many does Drunk driving kill? A **** TON. Yet they don't take their cars and crush them? Why not? It's a far more deadly violation?

You know why because street racing is a minority. A large population of people can say they have received a DUI or whatever your state calls it. I bet if people knew their car would be crushed if they received a DUI they would stop driving drunk.


Everyone always says they are against street racing but I guarantee if you drive your Evo on the street you have engaged in a speed contest and to say you haven't is complete and utter bull****.

Something tells me a small group of people out street racing at 3am on empty roads vs. a drunk at 1am cruising home, that the drunk has a much greater chance of hitting or killing someone vs. the group of sober people on empty roads.

Again I think the government is not looking at the big picture and singling out a very small issue instead of dealing with a real problem.

Maybe in Iowa there are empty roads at 3am, but finding street, flat, clean racing roads that are empty in NY is damn near impossible at anytime of the day. I hear where your coming from though

Exxactly!

I figure they probably won't crush those, but rather let the bank reposess them. It doesn't make sense that they can destroy someone else's property. Seizing yes...but not destroying. They don't burn money used in drug deals, or blow up stolen electronics or other seized property...so I don't see how it's legal to destroy the items.

But--if you don't street race--it won't be something you have to think about anyway I guess. Problem solved.

What a waste!!!! Auction them off like a repo at least, and put the money back into parks and recreation or something...
