Despite Ordinance, CPD Says Street Racing Will Continue ‘As Long As There Are No Consequences'

From Streeterville to the West Loop and more, neighborhoods across Chicago this summer have seen multiple incidents of illegal street racing, drifting and "stunting," with police and residents describing them as disruptive and dangerous.

"It wakes my husband and I up, and you see a mass of people, cars all over the place," one resident said, of the street racing takeovers that took place in the West Loop this weekend.

In a recent incident -- which police have not definitively identified as street racing -- a pedestrian was struck and killed early Sunday in the 6400 block of South Cicero when two red Corvettes traveling at a "high rate of speed" slammed into one another.

The cars should be crushed on site with the driver and passengers in them.

If a mobile crusher is not available, add a couple of gallons of gasoline and burn them.

This needs to protect the innocent IF IT SAVES ONE LIFE...

of course there will be incidents!

even professionals in real races crash. Eventually, innocent people will start dying.

This needs to stop

“Despite laws”!!

Silly people think laws will be enforced. This is “policing reimagined.” Just call out the social workers to talk to the racers and get them to see the error of their ways. I’m sure they will stop if the social workers are very polite to them and respectful.

Unfortunately, many are stolen which is why they're so brazen with them. It's not their loss.

If a few dozen of the natives are crushed to death inside/or burned.

A few might notice.
