I live right off North park and can hear racing every Saturday night at North park east of Lake Houston Parkway. This goes on every Saturday night and also East of Kingwood drive east of Lake Houston parkway. Does anyone else hear this racing every weekend? I am afraid someone will end up getting killed. 4951

It wouldn't be as bad if they only killed themselves or each other. But reckless drivers kill innocent people every day. Then when they kill someone, their lawyer will argue that it was a simple accident. Accidents happen you know. Can't blame someone for being in an accident. He was just driving along and boom, a spontaneous accident occurred. My client is as innocent as the driven snow. He didn't set out from home with a plan to kill, that makes it an accident. Therefore he can't be held accountable. Right? Of course not. Those who operate their vehicle in a manner that makes it a lethal weapon need to be locked up the same as if they were waving a loaded gun around. 4951

Good for you @Ann2800!Several of my neighbors called during Christmas.  But the police never showed up on time.  They were told it was every night at 2am.  The fire station has to hear it that is on High Valley too.  I don't know why they don't also call in.So many deer run across Kingwood Dr back here, one day, one of the kids will be killed.  
 
@Fallon: your so right. And if I hear it every sat night through my window why aren't police stopping it?

If mom and dad started checking the vehicles like my parents did, they could readily identify some of those racers. Burnt rubber usually clings to the undercarriage and doesn't come off completely in a quick car wash.. A simple check will open a conversation that counts.
 
Appropriate action (IMHO) would be "hang up the keys until the lesson is learned".
 
It may make the kids mad, but it may also save their life.
 
Here's a little edit: I don't know if the school does anything dramatic to make the kidsore aware of fatalities due to traffic accidents, but a few years after I graduated high school, we had the misfortune of losing five students in a single racing accident (two boys and three girls). I attended the funerals because they were brothers and sisters of my schoolmates.
 
I barely remember their names, but I can still see the five caskets in the same funeral procession.
 
The school hung a plaque with a picture of the caskets in the hallway. It had quite an impact on my younger brothers and sisters. 4951
