Everyone beware

Police kick off project to E.R.A.S.E. street racing
Police units from across the province kicked off project E.R.A.S.E. in an effort to put the brakes on speeders and other dangerous forms of diving.

At the MTO complex near Keele Street and Highway 401 Wednesday morning, officers kicked off project E.R.A.S.E., which stands for Eliminate Racing Activity on Streets Everywhere.

At the event today, officials displayed twisted wrecks to highlight speed's deadly reality.

Police want to remind the public that any driver caught going more than 50 kilometres per hour over the speed limit will be fined under harsh laws.

Police want drivers to know that street racing is illegal and jeopardizes innocent lives.

This makes about as much sense as the TTC prioritizing building a brand new headquarters, because clearly that is what is lacking in our transit infrastructure...

Although I do not condone street racing I guess it's easier to harass drivers than to try to catch criminals that could possibly shoot back and injure/kill them.

There is no money to be made in catching drug dealers, rapists etc... but this erase horseshit gives the public the perception that they are making things safer when its really just one big cash grab.
