Street takeovers are dangerous, illegal, and putting lives at risk. As both a State Representative and a nearly 20-year police officer, I’ve seen firsthand how these events can spiral out of control.
That’s why I filed HB3542 to hold everyone involved accountable; not just the drivers, but also the passengers and spectators fueling the chaos. Under my bill, participating in or even watching a street race with a crowd of 10 or more would come with consequences.
Law enforcement needs the tools to stop tragedy before it strikes. I’m working across the aisle to move this forward because we can’t let dangerous behavior take over our streets.
