OK, all you senior citizens dragracing your Buick Regals to the AARP meetings-knock it off!
As of October, any drivers accused of dragracing on public roadways will lose their ride for at least 10 days without due process. "The legislation only defines drag racing as comparing the speed or power of one vehicle to another vehicle on a public road or in a parking lot, "at accelerating speeds in a competitive attempt to outdistance each other." The penalties apply regardless of whether anyone was actually harmed or threatened with harm from such a contest."
I have a car that, when I downshift to pass, gets loud, which in turn usually causes some kid in his 'work-in-progress' to try to race me. I'm not racing, I just like to pass and get out of the way....would I lose my car for that in Florida? As that stands, probably.
