Street Racing

I'm here to talk to you about the reasons that I think why Street Racing shouldn't be legal. The three reasons I think why there shouldn't be any Street Racing in America are it isn't safe, it isn't legal, and it endangers other people lives.

The final reason is it endangers other people's lives. Cars in and around Illegal Street races are often issued equipment violations. The next example is citations are issued to all people in and around Illegal Street races. Finally People can easily get hurt in and around Street Races.
