Montgomery County is pushing a new bill to crack down on deadly street racing and takeovers, giving police more power to stop reckless behavior like burnouts and drivers hanging off cars — after a grieving mother shared how her son was killed in one of these crashes. Advocates want the law to cover private property too, to close loopholes, and stress that enforcement must be strong — with proper resources for police — to make the law work. The bill heads to a council committee for debate, aiming to protect everyone from these dangerous stunts. Thank you to our sponsor Garrett Waller…
