The power to seize/destroy modified cars, think again before getting Procede?

Police in Canada's most populous province have the right to seize and destroy any car that has been modified for street racing, Ontario's top prosecutor claims.

“If we can establish someone has parts and they're juicing up their car — obviously for the purpose of street racing — then we can seize those vehicles,” Ontario Attorney General Michael Bryant said Wednesday, according to the Canadian Press.

“We will seize it and you will never see it again. We will crush your car, we will crush the parts.”

“We don't need to wait until that car hits the road fully loaded,” he said, adding that modified cars are as dangerous as explosives, capable of causing catastrophic damage.

That's just absolutely retarded. All the accidents last week that were due to "STREET RACING" were done by BONE STOCK cars. Stock Mustang, Stock Caddy CTS and stock Grad Prix. Who the hell races with a stock green Grand Prix?! All cars are capable of street racing if put in the wrong hands.

The media is blowing this way out of proportion and pointing their fingers to enthusiasts who like to add some BPU (bolt on performance upgrades) to their cars.

Personally, I have way too much money invested in my show car to go and race it on the street to wreck it, let alone hurting someone in the process.

It was bound to happen, they are already crushing cars in So-Cal that can't prove the parts were not stolen.
