Comment on Are Street Racers "bad people"?

A lot of them are assholes, yeah. You can safely assume some of those people are also lawbreakers if they're already breaking a few dozen laws by doing stupid street racing. Probably drug dealers too. Doing something like illegal street racing, is like a criminal's side-hobby. You won't know what else they've done until they've gotten arrested.

Weirdly puritanical view. Drug dealers aren’t running like moonshiners.

Well, they do run like moonshiners, but that’s different from street racing for the fun of it.

In sea and air, sure. Not as street racers. Not since radios became standard issue for police and even less with much better tracking. Drugs are much more likely to be in a van or gray camry doing the speed limit than a loud exhaust, underglowing, speeding charger.
