I witnessed a nasty accident by two guys street racing. Not really part of the group I hung out with or anything but just two guys that both thought they had fast cars and wouldn't give up.
I was leaving the shopping center getting ready to make a right hand turn onto Lake Worth road heading west. These two coming from the opposite direction where racing east on Lake Worth. You could see their headlights weaving in an out of traffic. I just sat there to see who would win. Then the guy in the outside lane clipped the rear of the other guys car causing him to spin, hit the median then travel upside down coliding with two cars heading west. The first hit the side of the car flipping it, the second one had it's roof sheard off. Both the driver and passenger were killed in the second car two children in the back seat lived. The elderly couple in the first car he hit both died as well.
Later on it turned out that the driver and passenger of the second car where the family of the chief of the fire department. Both guys are still serving sentences of man slaughter. This was about 3-4 years ago.
This is why people should never street race in a crowded area. I always make a point to race in least populated area as possible.
