CHARLOTTE, N.C. (WBTV) - Police have impounded 60 vehicles and warned about 300 people, while more than 50 people face indictments due to aggressive driving and street racing in the Charlotte area.
Near the end of 2020, police say numerous instances of aggressive driving and street racing compelled several members of the Charlotte community to reach out and express their concerns to the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department (CMPD).
Over the next six months, a multi-agency effort resulted in more than 2,500 traffic stops, nearly 3,500 violations and the seizure of 60 vehicles.
