Street Racing

We were toned out for a TC in front of the local high school just after 0800. As we approached the scene we were able to see a 1977 Camaro that had the entire front end destroyed. We also could see the undercarriage of a pick up truck that had flipped onto it's side and come to rest against a fire hydrant. Amazingly enough, both drivers had self extricated from the vehicle. The driver of the Camaro was a 17 year old student driving his 16th birthday present. Both drivers signed out AMA (technically the mom signed out the 17 year old). After talking with PD we found out that there had been a third vehicle and all three were street racing down a 4 lane road. When the two vehicles crashed the third kept going.

A couple of photos of what can happen while street racing.
