Casper Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 Summary: http://www.legislature.state.oh.us/analysis.cfm?ID=128_HB_191&hf=analyses128/h0191-i-128.htmThe entire thing: http://www.legislature.state.oh.us/BillText128/128_HB_191_I_Y.htmlCliffs:- using nitrous on the street will be the same as a DUI- if you accelerate quickly, squeal tires, corner hard, brake hard, etc, they can detain/arrest you. if you're found guilty, courts are REQUIRED to seize your car/bike. you don't get it back. - anyone encouraging/helping/participating gets the same penalties. ie: the threads on here about stupid cagers and squids racing bikes = jail time for those who laugh or say anything positive about the race. - you can be the only car/bike on the road and still be found guilty of street racing.- riding/driving any way other than what the court deems "normal" is considered street racing- we're all fucked if this passes. most don't street race, but just riding hard can/will be considered street racing.

V4junkie Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 (edited) Good god, something like that would kill the market for road going performance machines of any kind. As if the over abundance of highway patrol didn't already make us look bad enough. Edited December 1, 2009 by V4junkie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DTM Brian Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 Brandon was found not guilty of street racing. Yet they still blame street racing for the accident. Money makes the world go around I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RSVDon Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 if that passes, guess I'll just start running. they're taking the bike anyway.As much as I hate to admit it, yes. Because now instead of getting a ticket for fooling around, now they're gonna take my bike away and try to make sure I never drive again. What incentive do I have to stop? Now we're all going to turn into QuikZX9 guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siebec Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 So who determines how hard one is allowed to brake? Accelerate? Seems like a lot of potential for abusive cops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Likwid Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 I'm going to go out on a limb here and bet it won't pass... it won't get out of committee before the next congressional session, unless some serious people fast track it.

Steve Butters Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 thats why i do only track days,so i dont need worry abouth this crap.thats what youre missing though...this is going to affect everyone on the road...profiling is going to shoot through the roof...accelerating too fast is grounds for losing your car? accelerating too fast is subjective, so you get a dick cop and your done for...anyone with a loud exhaust will be accelerating too fast, anyone on a bike, anyone with tint and wheels, etc etc etc... the only people who should not care about this bill are people in average plain jane looking cars who never go even 1mph over the limit, ever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
