Furious and furious as New York lawmaker wants to crack down on illegal street racing

ALBANY — Not so fast! A state senator wants to crack down on illegal street racing by expanding the city’s speed camera program and making it easier to hold reckless drivers accountable.

In response to a surge in complaints about speed demons taking advantage of coronavirus-cleared streets, Sen. Brad Hoylman (D-Manhattan) plans to introduce the Fighting Underground Racing In Our Streets, or FURIOUS, Act on Tuesday.

The bill would allow the city to operate school zone speed cameras on nights and weekend and change New York’s lax laws on street racing.

Hoylman told the Daily News the bill is intended to “crack down on dangerous speed racing as well as give these drivers notice that what they’re doing could result in fines and the loss of their license.”

Once I arrived at my new assignment in Stuttgart last year I had to find shelter, and found a Temp. housing situation at the https://www.v8hotel.de/en/
The Apartment

All of the rooms were motor sports themed rooms.





This Porsche was taken apart then put back together in the most unusual way.



The Hotel Lobby had several Super car dealers and Classic car dealers as well.

On October 6, Christie’s will be auctioning off Stan—one of the most complete Tyrannosaurus rex skeletons ever found. The skeleton could fetch a record price at the auction, with estimates as high as $8 million.

Standing 13 feet tall (3.9 meters) and nearly 40 feet long (12 meters), Stan would make for a spectacular addition to any well-to-do museum. A more disgusting possibility would see the skeleton land in some rich rando’s private collection, never to be seen again in public. But such are the possibilities, as Christie’s prepares to auction the impressive specimen during its 20th Century Evening Sale event in New York City.

“It is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to acquire a T. rex as complete as this,” James Hyslop, head of Christie’s Science & Natural History department, told AFP.
