Apparently, talking about it in this thread hasn't discouraged it either.
No one is turning a blind eye to the problem by not allowing such discussion.
Not allowing such discussion is a stand that this forum has taken against such ignorant and immature behaviour.
We know it exists, we know that it's a problem, but we don't want to be a part of such blatant ignorance.
As mentioned earlier in the thread, it would be nothing but repetitious to have posts of street racing accounts only to reply over and over how idiotic it is.
I think that we have discussed this issue to some depth in this thread, and a reply to a street race discussion with a link here would suffice in educating the uneducated.
There are enough forums around the 'Net to serve examples of what happens when things go wrong, and there are enough forums around the 'Net that are more than willing to give that pat on the back that street racers seek. There really isn't a need for one more.
With reference to letting them die with the other person, it isn't the street racer that we're concerned about. It's the other person.
