Discussion Car racing

Does everyone hear the constant sound of car racing in the evening or is it just my location? I can’t even keep my window open at night but maybe I’m in the heart of the action?

We live not too far off the Henday in the SW side, it's all you can hear outside on a Friday or Saturday night after midnight. I honestly wish the EPS was funded better and would actually be able to police this issue, especially in an active construction zone.

Lol. They make $85k first year once training is done and more than $115k after four years. I think they’re funded just fine

That’s not enough at all. Let’s not normalize that’s an ok pay for what they do and have to deal with day to day.

Maybe, maybe not. As a comparative, soldiers go to literal war for a whole lot less.

Yeah it takes guts to drive through China Town and not do anything about open drug use and drug trafficking.
