How Boy Racers are harming the Economy!

Kia Ora,

Most nights a week here in NZ & in particular in Christchurch boy racers cause a lot of upset.

They also cause a lot of mindless destruction of business properties. From personal experience they have being seen doing anything from breaking windows, trying to set buldings on fire, destroying parts of buildings & putting staff in fear of injury or for some even their lives.

That is not hype but actual experience, not to mention the fires started on farm properties & threatening owners on the outskirts of Christchurch.

It must be costing Christchurch businesses & the economy alone millions of dollars.



The following footage was shot last night as yet again they used a business property to carry out burnouts.

Their reaction to being found out ended in some abusive language, but nothing to those who have felt the wrath of a Company Sergeant Major or worse a Regimental Sergeant Major.



As the police said when responding to this incident last night, "it starts as harmless fun, but then something gets damaged or destroyed."

The quality is not great as approaching where they had being carrying out burnouts for about half an hour, someone decided to use the area as a toilet, so was forced to take footage from some distance.

One thing this incident did show when talking to the police was the "boy racer law" brought in by the last government has major limitations.

All though this wasn't the reason for the launch recently of the new security service, it is an area where it can be effective.
