Governor Brian Kemp Announces Anti-Street Racing, Stunt Driving Legislation
ATLANTA, GA - A news article posted on cbslocal.com reports that Governor Brian Kemp announced new anti-street racing and stunt driving legislation. According to Governor Kemp, Georgia's roadways, highways, and parking lots have grown into a "free-for-all speedway" for criminals. The Governor addressed news reporters at the State Capitol on February 19, 2021, to introduce House Bill 534.
According to the Governor, House Bill 534 takes on deadly street racing and stunt driving throughout the state of Georgia. Georgia's current laws outlaw street racing on public roadways, laying drags, and spinning. House Bill 534 adds both "organizing drag racing" and "reckless stunt driving" to the list of criminal driving offenses.
State Representative Josh Bonner explained how law enforcement worked with the Georgia legislature to develop a solution. State Representative Bonner is sponsoring HB 534 with several other Georgia lawmakers.
Several Georgia cities like Atlanta, Chamblee, and Sandy Springs, have recently toughened their street racing ordinances due to the surge in reckless driving behavior.
