keep it safe and take it to the track. of course people let their rear ends loose a tad bit the odd time but drifting openly isn’t the way to go.

street/parking lot drifting will happen regardless… so whats one person? and dont give me the “one person makes a difference!” crap cause we all know they would just do it again. so everyone needs to chill out, or tell ramesh hes a loser face to face.

e-peens ftw!

carry on.

wait so is drifting in an empty parking lot illegal? (sorry to divert from the drama =D)  
Im not talking about public mall parking lots with lots of attention.  
I mean the industrial areas or super vacant areas, is practicing drifting there illegal?

wow this forum is great lol, completely useless thread only creating problems and infighting. A hilarious read all the comments 🙂

What’s ironic is that weed is more safe/being made legal while people in empty parking lots in the middle of no where ‘drifting’ are dangerous and criminals today.

Quite frankly I screw around in my company’s parking lots, I get cheers for burnouts/‘drifting’ including from the director who is into cars and loves the skyline haha. No one cares, neither should you. No idea where this centenial park is or who did this but this is pretty pointless for this community. Not very car enthusiastic. It makes me laugh the spectrum of arguments. “Do you know the criminal code of Canada?” HAHA

Like? Who cares? At the end of the day the popos just want to meet their ticket quotas and make money. I very much doubt any one of you did not have a little fun in an empty parking lot.

Of course don’t do stupid things on public roads… get real. Some common sense people.

Edited 🙂

There is no specific law against it, but the cops can give you dangerous driving and/or trespass by night (if its private property) which are both criminal charges. They could also give you a noise violation or all sorts of other little things they pull out their ass.

You could probably get off the dangerous charge because your weren’t endangering anyones else’s life directly but the trespassing charge would be up to the owner of the property.

Here’s one to try (I swear it’s not full of cliche excuses):

“I’m sorry officer, I came here to learn stick where noone can get hurt, in this rear-wheel-drive vehicle. I started to panic at my uncomfortability with the clutch, popped it in by accident, and the car started to slide!”

That’s my excuse. Lawl.
