One city that has taken the gloves off against street racers is Louisville, Kentucky. Police there keep impounding racers’ cars, and it happened again recently, with the department taking to social media to show off the confiscated vehicles.

Hitting offenders where it hurts has become a signature tactic for the city. Seizing the cars sends a clear message that the racing scene won’t be tolerated.
