Go post this on Canadian lifestyle community forums, they strongly believe that all street racers should have their cars crushed and should be shot and killed. I think they should be shot and killed for being such bangwagon hopping little superficial idiots who are addictied control freaks and need mental help.

half the time you hear about Street Racing deaths it’s some idiot in his mom’s minivan racing another idiot in his dad’s SUV…

Word. There should be another statistic on how many of those were involving modified cars. I wanna laugh at the idiots in charge of this province when the number shows up to be 0-5

Toddlers, people leave water or whatever in the bucket. Toddlers climb in upside down and drown.

I highly doubt that this number of 141 is true.

When I was in my 3rd year of highschool 2 people died from street racing, separate incidents.

This is in Oakville of all places, where people ONLY die of natural causes… and i guess in two cases, street racing. 😃

I’m sure in a place like the united states there are at least a few a day… probably more like 10-20.

somehow I doubt all the street racing accidents in the world are even reported let alone tagged as racing

as for falling into buckets… I’m sure that happens in poor countries that equally don’t report with reliability

so the whole thread is bs, statistically 65% of statistics are inaccurate, and 54% are fabrications to support an underlying argument

you can search toronto street racing in the search and find a bunch of threads on the new laws and stuff, but I would reccomend starting a new thread.
