Watching a street race? You could be fined $1,000 in Santa Ana
Authorities are warning residents to think twice before catching a street race in Santa Ana.
SANTA ANA, Calif. - Have you ever seen a street race? Attending one could now cost you a big fine.
A proposal making its way through Santa Ana City Council could charge street racing spectators with a $1,000 fine.
Spectators knowingly standing within 200 feet of races or dangerous street events would get warnings, but eventually could be fined or end up with a six month jail sentence.
Councilmembers are still working on the wording of the proposal and coming to agreement on issues like, how do you tell who is a participant vs. someone who stepped out of the house when they heard the loud screeching of tires.
