If it’s anything like the ones I have seen out West, most of the plates are fake tags that they take off when they drive away.

Police chase - Why are these LARPers pretending they are in an action movie and endangering everyone by chasing? ACAB
Police don't chase - What lazy, ineffective police. ACAB

The story said this was all happening in a parking lot? I have heard of street takeovers maybe in Wethersfield?
Social media is probably getting large groups of people together like this.
Sometimes I think if THAT many people are interested in doing this sort of thing, maybe we should offer official track type places for them to use/compete in. It might keep them off the real streets.
New sports seem to crop up every so often. I remember when we had no skateboarding parks. Now it is an actual Olympic sport.

Was riding with my visor open and took a bumble bee just under the eye doing like 40-45, wasn’t not the most pleasant feeling while going down the road

West Rock, South tip overlooking New Haven
Always fairly empty with lots of private spots to pick out.

Gotta give simsbury PD something to do prob one of the most exciting “events” this year …. The cops can’t even “chase” one car that will not pull over, I’m surprised they even left the station for 200

Yeah it’s pretty much guaranteed in Hartford and West Hartford any time the weather gets nice

I know it was an incredible sight! It's actually happened a few times at the new intersection of the route 34 connector and orange st. There's red light runners essentially every single cycle of the signal because people are flying off the highway and not following the reduced speed limit signs in advance of the signal (although I don't fully blame them, nothing was done to change the design of the road to make it feel less like a highway) so there's been some targeted enforcement there.

There’s an area in West Haven alongside I95 North that has a bunch of food trucks with plenty of parking that overlooks the Sound.

But they were on two of the flattest and straightest roads in town, the definitely could have pursued them. That and they’ve always been happy to pull people over, it strikes me as very weird that they don’t.

If the worst offense listed in the news story is doing donuts in an empty school parking lot at night....

If you like to have a beer (or even if you don't) there are plenty of open mic type places around (taking into account being a musician). Welcome and good luck!

Indeed. You’d be shocked to know how many drugs get through the town.
Lots of meth.

If you're into the creative arts scene there is Real Art Ways on Arbor Street that has a Creative Cocktail night every 3rd Thursday of the month. They're fun and it is a neat venue that does a lot of stuff.
