Default California street race - Mother and her 2 kids now dead

If you race on the street, at any hour, you are an immature f*cktard.

Monday in a residential area of El Monte. A red Mustang and a light brown Acura Legend ran a four-way stop while reportedly street racing north on Parkway Drive. The Mustang slammed into a Nissan Altima coming through the intersection. The impact threw the Nissan 50 feet and it then burst into flames.

Inside the car was a mother with her two children. Neighbors say they ran to the vehicle and tried to help save the family as the car burned, but the heat from the flames was just too intense.

The family died in the car fire.

I hope the 2 car owners (or drivers) do jail time. 25 years wont bring back the family, but it will give those McDouchebags some time to reflect on their assanine actions.
My prayers go out to the remaining family members.

25 only? Should be a life for a life.

Edit: Here is the best punishment: Sit them both in a car. Throw gasoline on it. Have someone hit them so they fly 50 feet, then throw a match on top of it and let it burst into flame; remember to lock those doors. That's what you call the punishment fits the crime. 25 years is pathetic IMO.

Not sure where they are.

The moral of the story is: If you decide to race on public roads (at any hour of the day/night), you have made a conscious decision that will endanger the lives and well-being of anybody that's currently on that road, or who may potentially be on that road.

It's completely uncalled for and completely unnecessary. Go to the track where racing belongs.

Next time these scumbags attempt to race their friends or brag about how many cars they 'killed'; I hope they think about a mom and her 2 children who won't ever be coming home again because of sh-theads like them.

I truly do believe in an eye for an eye. Without any second guessing or consideration.

^Damn straight.

I wanted to add: Blind fold them so they don't know when they will get hit; just like the family.

whats the point of racing? are you trying to prove your a bad ___? or just dont care for life itself?

I cringe everytime i see these topics about "what can i smoke" or "oh man i just killed a *insert car name here*"

IMO theres more of a thrill taking your car to the track.

Too bad LACR closed

Why can't all the street racers die? From the bucket hondas to whatever high end car, just die already, especially the ones in bucket hondas just die over and over again please.
