MT. HOLLY SPRINGS, Thursday, July 16 - A 17-year-old from Newville faces a number of charges after trying to elude police and crashing into a guide rail.

[Sick and Tired]

Racing on Route 34 - I hope they take their licenses away - but the only thing is that won't probably mean anything - they'll drive anyway!! When are they going to start giving these names?

This could have ended much worse.
Do these kids think the video game "Grand Theft Auto" is a real?

it's amazing to me when i read stories like this when teens run from the cops. don't they realize if they just pull over, the outcome is going to much better? now they have serious charges pending against them. when will kids learn?

As long as parents and others have the opinion of "they're just being kids" and defend their actions as "bad choices" or "stupid or silly mistakes", they'll NEVER LEARN TILL IT'S TOO LATE!!!

[Good grief]

You people are probably all women. I know I used to race my car when I was ateenager and most will because they ARE just being stupid kids. I know alot of adults who do not consider the consequences of thier actions either....just read the divorce section.

There would have been a day when the cops would have locked'em up for awhile for a good scare then called the fathers who would have beat thier a$$e$ but thanks to the politcal correctness of the new age....they will have criminal records, big fines and the local gov will make a lot of money that all they want.

I am glad no one was hurt.

PS:
and a car racing a motorcycle is like taking a knife to a gun fight..........

What winners you have rasied.
I think they Should post their names if they are man enough to act so foolishly then they should be man enough to embarass their whole family!

[anon]

racing your vehicle and fleeing from the police are two different things Good Grief. Racing against another person is stupid, running from the cops is lack of respect for authority.

i didn't mean that they should only get a slap on the wrist for their behavior. i just meant that rather than run from the police, they should have stopped and accepted the repercussions for their actions. rather than try and elude the police and risk other people's lives. they never should have been racing in the first place.
