Street racers could lose their wheels

The problem Street Racing

Under current law, first-time offenders can serve only a maximum of 60 days in jail and second-time offenders just a year in jail.

The solution?

HB 71 The proposal calls for first-time offenders to be charged with a first-degree misdemeanor punishable by up to a year in jail. For a second offense in a five-year period, drag racers can be charged with a third-degree felony punishable by up to five years in prison.

So far so good

Under the bill sent to Gov. Jeb Bush, racers could face up to five years in prison and lose their cars.

This property seizure crosses the line and it won't hold up in court.
