    Well, it could be much worse!! This is from a street racing incident and I remember in AJ on one night that took the life of a 19 old pregnant girl. She was sitting at the light at Meridian and the Trail when she got blasted from behind by a Dodge pickup racing another car that left the scene. In my 25 years as a paramedic there isn't much worse than that..............

    WOW now that is horrible, now depending on the circumstances I can understand the police taking the car. Say if it was when there were cars on the streets, anythime during the day etc. that makes perfect sense but to give the car to a cop, I just don't know if I could see my car being driven by an officer and just stay calm about it. Especially if I were in an Aveo lol.

    Would anyone pull over for that car? Unmarked with some cheesy blue lights and a meathead behind the wheel? Looks like an imposter. If that was behind me with the lights on, I would probably call 911 to verify that I wasn't about to get jacked.

    Aveo FTMFW!

    I agree wuth you but.. I have seen so many 5x and 6x dui offenders in crashes without valid drivers licenses. Even if they have had their privilege removed they still drive everyday! They are out there the only way to keep these offenders off the street is JAIL.

    I think most people forget what you have siad that driving is a privilege and not a right of passage. Driving a car is as dangerous as a loaded gun and in the hands of a loser, well you know the outcome....

    If you take the need to drive away then they wont need to and in jail all the travel plans are made for you!!!!!

    Oh yeah and they should have to pay for their stay! Work on the farm or make plates or pull weeds!! Something so that the taxpayers don't have to be pumped for three hots and a cot!

    the car is supposed to be making over 500hp even with it dumbed down by the police. it is going to be at a dyno day at pro-dyno in a couple of weekends. i will let everyone know what it put down.

    I think the cobra is in some good hands and that it's likely to find itself out at the track on occasion in its campaign to end street racing. I'm sure the officers who will come in contact with it will know a fair bit about it. It's not like your typical officer will be driving this car, it's going to be part of a special task force I'm sure.

    Man does it suck to be the owner of that car though.

    I would bet this is more of a treat to others who street race saying "Look what we can do" not "look at what we will do" it just happened that the owners of those two cars were used as the example. I can't see them taking every car, or even the majority of the cars, they pull over for street racing becuase they would have and abundance of LS1 Camaros and Trans Ams they wouldn't know what to do with
