- - just witness an epic failed street race *Richmond* (https://www.revscene.net/forums/707552-just-witness-epic-failed-street-race-%2Arichmond%2A.html)

About a week ago I was in the left turn lane on Garden City turning onto Westminster Hwy. There was a blacked out Jeep Wrangler to the right of the intersection heading down Westminster Hwy, looked like a white guy driving with ladies in the back. As soon as the light turned green, the Jeep gunned it through the intersection, didn't notice that there was a marked RCMP Explorer right behind him, cop chased him down and pulled him over after No.4. The Jeep was doing well over 100.

Garden City, Westminster Hwy, Alderbridge, always people driving like faggots there. Alexandria and Hazelbridge too, but in different ways. That entire area is a gongshow.

OP, can you post the video?

Even more lulz

does he have an N at the back? cause he might be sort of down the street from where i am.

almost unbelievable,Haha.

Yeah alexandria rd, I have seem too many 'show off' or fob driving fast there only to be pulled over

Is there any stories about illegal street racing scenes in this city? When i was younger there was an underground street racing scene in Regina saskatchewen. They'd always rip up and down the road near my house in their POS civics, waking me up at all hours of the night.

there sure are. the main one ended with Constable Ng (spelling) dead when street racers blew through a red light and t-boned him.

not to mention multiple accidents with N drivers with 4 passengers flipping their civics into the ditches in richmond, and all 5 persons drowning. richmond is plagued with street racing from the last 15 years. one of the main reasons ICBC brought in the one friend rule for N drivers

Lol reminds me of this

Richmond street racers banned from the road
Powerful cars, driven by a 31-year-old and a novice 20-year-old, have been impounded after Bridgeport Road incident on Tuesday

A 2011 BMW M3, such as this one, was pulled over by Richmond Mounties Tuesday night on Bridgeport Road for street racing with a Subaru Impreza

Two Richmond drivers have been ticketed and banned from the road after street-racing along one of the city’s main roads.

The drivers, a 31-year-old and a 20-year-old with a novice license, were caught by police around 10 p.m. on Tuesday racing their powerful 2011 BMW M3 and 2008 Subaru Impreza WRX vehicles westbound along Bridgeport Road, near the Highway 99 off-ramp.

A Richmond Mountie was on patrol when he spotted the vehicles racing along the street. Both vehicles were quickly stopped near Gage and Bridgeport roads, via a coordinated effort from fellow officers.

The drivers were each issued violation ticket for driving without due care and attention and issued an immediate 15-day driving prohibition pending further review. Both vehicles were towed and impounded for seven days.

“Richmond RCMP has zero tolerance for street racing and this has stemmed from the early 2000s when street racing incidents rose throughout the province,” said Cpl. Dennis Hwang, of Richmond RCMP.

“What may seem like a few thrilling moments can quickly transform into horror with serious injury or even death. The aftermath of street racing can have lifelong repercussions

"Super powerful cars"

Such power
Very super
wow
