bad accident at illegal street races in fresno, cali
hey guys, im sorry to tell u guys bout this, but early easter morning at about 2am, i was involved in an accident that killed 2 maybe more ppl at street races in fresno, cali at lincoln and cornilla.. WE WERE NOT RACING.. (POS mazda w/ 5 ppl goin the opposite direction ppl were racing).. there were about 200+ cars and 500+ ppl.. they were lined up parked along both sides of the road for about a 1/4 mi.. we were doin about 40 mph (i looked at the speedo so i do know that for a fact).. came to were the races were starting, went thru a cloud of smoke (probably from a burnout).. about 10ft after the smoke, there was a car stopped in the northbound lane and 5-6 ppl standing in the southbound lane.. we hit the ppl standing in the southbound lane and a parked car.. all i remember is hitting the first person, watching him fly over the car.. the hitting the second person.. me hitting the winshield (i was wearing a seatbelt, but it failed).. looking at the otehr person on the other side of the winshield (thats probably the only thing that stopped me from goin thru the winshield)..
there was 1 person dead the the scene (14 yo male).. a 18 yo male died at the hospital upon arrival.. ive head the the 19 yo brother of the 14 yo died monday in the hospital..
im not too bady hurt.. my left arm or scratched up really bad.. my lip is a big scar, i got a gash on my head, and i brused my ribs..
i hope everyone reads this and STOPS RACING ON THE STREET!!! its not only illegal but its very dangerous
i know i posted this in another forum, but i want everyone on here to know about this.. i dont have internet access at my house, but ill try to keep everyone updated

Nice to hear you were not seriously hurt, but why were you not paying attention to the road? you possibly could have avoided people...
STREET RACING IS DUMB UNLESS YOUR IN AN EMPTY AREA. IE Like me and surrounded by corn fields... then the best you can do is wipe yourself out along with some corn stalks...
PS I do not mean to sounds like an *** or anything but....

YES but
Everyone needs to remember that yes it is illegal, and it more then likely will stay that way if dont do it in a somewhat responsible way. Im sorry but lining up that many people in a poplulated area with uncontroled lanes is tragedy. Not to sound like uncaring i do feel bad, but if everyone, drivers and spectators would have paid more attention it would have been avoided.

i wasnt driving.. i was the passenger in the front seat.. if u look up any of the atricles (fresno bee monday and tuesday and la times donna when the story will be published in that tho) the driver was drunk (.09 barly drunk in cali).. if they had did the test 30 mins later he wouldve not been legally drunk..
this road is in the middle of the country.. its a small 2 lane road.. the east side of the road is an orchard and the west side is a empty field.. someone in this area has tried to open a free drag track, but fresno county wouldnt give him the permits to build it cuz of noise ordanance..
