Ik hoorde een paar keer een auto voorbij scheuren. Op momenten ook piepende banden, en met een keer op tijd uit het raam hangen een witte flits.

Een paar minuten weer piepende banden, met direct daarna een klap. Gevolgd door sirenes en een plastic brandlucht.

Bestuurder is weggerend hoorde ik toen ik toch even ging kijken.

Balen van de schade die is toegebracht, maar ook fijn dat in ieder geval 1 straatracer voorlopig geen gevaar meer kan zijn.

Instead of baning #streetracing we should regulate it e.g. require special driver training, declaring zones for street racing so that it's not disrupting people at night, etc..

A Look at The Black Ghost Dodge Challenger And The Man Behind The Wheel

"Starting in the spring of 1970, this black HEMI engine-powered Challenger would show up at various racing spots around Metro Detroit – sometimes Woodward or Telegraph, sometimes one of the more out-of-the-way locations – and beat anyone who was willing to line up. After beating everyone who wanted to race, the menacing Dodge would disappear into the night for weeks or even months. No one in the racing scene knew who was driving this Dodge Challenger,"

Portland is one of 4 large US cities without #police #traffic #enforcement https://katu.com/news/katu-investigates/portland-one-of-few-major-american-cities-without-proactive-speed-traffic-enforcement.

On the one hand, keeping police out of enforcement is good. It prevents #DrivingWhileBlack harassment + excessive policing.

On the other hand, #USDOT ranks #Oregon in top 10 #TrafficViolence

In 2021 Oregon had 1.54 traffic deaths for every 100M miles traveled vs nearby WA at 0.94 death/100Mvmt.

#Portland has lots of #EntitledDriver #StreetRacing, but few #speed cameras or safety engineering.
