Spring Days And Fast Cars A Deadly Mix Police blame street racing for two bay crash deaths
SPEED ON THE STREETS
Yet, the combination of speed, powerful cars and, sometimes, alcohol can transform youthful bravado into tragedy.
Early Sunday morning in San Jose, Daniel Emery Tobin, 19, was killed while apparently racing his 1986 black Ford Mustang against a 2001 black BMW 330CI driven by Kraig Amador, 21, of Mountain View. Witnesses reported that the cars were traveling at least 20 mph over the 40 mph speed limit on Blossom Hill Road when Tobin lost control and slammed into a pole, tearing the car in half and ejecting the teenager onto the roadway, said San Jose police spokesman Rubens Dalaison.

Maybe you knew Daniel Tobin also... and he wasn't street racing either. Just a SOCMOB.
