Kid drag racing Mustang kills mother, toddler not expected to live

I am pretty confident the person driving the mustang did not go out and buy that car with his own money, I'm sure his parents bought him the car. Maybe he suffers from affluenza which brought on a complete disregard for the safety of others.
You know, I would have never gone for this when I was 17, but with how fast cars are getting these days, maybe its time we start acting like other countries and limit what younger drivers can drive by horsepower rating or cylinder count.

Again, I have never put innocent bystanders at risk of injury or death to prove just how fast (or not) my car is. That's BS.
So more laws will help this situation?
They were street racing, law broken.
Speeding, law broken.
Reckless driving, law broken.
The number of cylinders or horsepower was not a factor. This would have happened with two drivers in Kia Souls, this was 100% both the drivers fault.
Such a senseless loss.
That road is dangerous on good days. Now they are dropping the speed limit from 40 to 35. Really? Spped bumps before pedestrian crossing would be a better option. Not sure what else would work besides pedestrian crossing overs.
Consequences matter and consequence separate a driving citation from a FELONY.
That is basically the description of racing
I bought a 96 Cobra when I was 15.
Never killed anyone. We had an old straight flat road outside of town that you could just see for miles.
There's a time and a place for this stuff. People need to raise their kids better.
More laws won't solve a ****ing thing.
Got to agree. My wife is a chaplain and has worked these cases when they have come to the hospital and she has seen more death than most combat veterans. I have no idea how she does it.

Or like we have in school zones; speed cameras. They're controversial, but they do get people to slow down.
Ah yes a LEO condoning street racing is the epitome of common sense.
Is this the twilight zone?
Raced ur car against someone else in an area that isn't 100% safe..... really uve never done that before ever in ur life. I find that hard to believe. The killing someone is the end result.
Thats like saying "Ive never killed anyone while drinking and driving". No maybe u haven't but most have surely driven over the legal limit putting others at risk numerous times in their life and no has been killed as a result.
No different then lining up against someone else and losing control of their vehicle. Yea I'm sure NO ONE EVER IN THEIR LIFE lined up against someone and let in rip in an area they shudnt be racing lol never I'm sure! Gimme a ****ing break! As an ADULT maybe u have more commons sense but as a kid we ALL did stupid things like this with out fast cars.

Oh please bro..... uve never lined up against someone else in ur life and let it rip? Never? I call that BS! Lets not confuse "Street Racing" with lining up against someone else at a light and letting it rip. Are u really gonna sit here and tell me uve never done that before? Really?
People didn't stop the hi way and line up with a flagger and race down the hi way THAT is street racing. Letting it rip at a light against another car is done every day so lets cut the righteous BS here huh!
So never in ur life have u sped down the road where u shouldn't have? Really? never huh? wow thats amazing bro!

is this a true statement?
There is no justifying this. Period.
Yes, I've street raced. Yes, I have a son (about this poor kid's age). Yes, I will do it again. Calculated risks. The difference between how I do it and how they do it are night and day, literally. If you are going to elect to street race, you absolutely can't do it with traffic around, much less foot traffic. You don't do it in broad daylight and you also don't do it where you would be putting anyone unwilling in a compromising situation. This is common sense and goes back to my initial post of "time and place, time and place."
Also, I believe I read another article where the child has passed. Also also, all the above information is in no way serious, just expressed like so to make a point. Illegal is illegal no matter one dices it.
