So lah ging and soooooo civilized. Makes me so proud of our comrades~ 
Notable quotes from the newspaper article:
- More than $2 million worth of high-powered sports cars were impounded in Surrey and White Rock after a convoy of youths were seen racing along Highway 99.
- Not one of the drivers was over the age of 20
- Police in White Rock said very few of the seven drivers had a full class five licence, and one of the cars had less than 200 km on the odometer.
- A lot of these cars had N decals on them

Was there any evidence that they were speeding way above speed limit?
If no evidence, then it is illegal impound.
It looks like jealousy here.

If you think like that then you are discriminating against owners of sports cars.
You still need the evidence of speeding.

逾十少年新牌仔 素里公路賽車
豪華跑車一字排開 警傻眼
【明報專訊】逾10名年輕人包括亞裔及新牌仔，昨日下午駕駛覑名貴房車於鬧市穿梭，於接駁列治文及三角洲的喬治馬西隧道(George Massey)及素里高速行駛，時速甚至一度高達200公里。
據電視台Global報道指，為數13部名貴房車的司機疑進行街頭賽車，車隊約在下午3時半沿99號公路以高速行駛，並途經接駁列治文及三角洲的喬治馬西隧道南行線，驚動路上其他駕駛者，而警方亦接到不少911電話報案。
他們終在素里及白石鎮交界152街(152 St.)一處遭警方截停，並被騎警警員問話，不少為亞裔年輕人。
警扣200萬元座駕財物
警方隨即將他們的座駕拖走，而被檢走的財物，價值約為200萬元。
警方有權扣留他們的車輛7天和起訴他們不小心駕駛。
騎警發言人馬西(Bryon Massey)表示，曾向這些年輕人查問，他們指是為了慶祝而一起駕車上街，但他們卻選擇了在99號公路不負責任地開快車的形式來慶祝。
有司機指，他們正準備前往一處聚餐。
騎警Holly Marks說，他很吃驚這些年輕人居然擁有這麼馬力強大的車輛，車隊中甚至一度有兩部車併排擋住公路上的其他車輛，把前面的道路讓出來給同伴比賽。他說，這樣不負責任的駕駛行為，很容易傷到自己與其他人。
這批名貴房車，大部分車價每部都為10萬或以上，車牌亦非一般的號碼，如「888」或以常見華裔姓氏併音相同的英文字組成。不少汽車亦掛有「N」牌，代表他們剛領有駕駛執照不久。

I know not everyone understand it. But I am actually more active and going to more places because traveling with transit doesn't really cost more (or have very little effect) on the system.
The pay off is to carry heavy load of my farmers market shopping home but... I just want to make a different by doing my part.

Peter seems to be closer to the truth this time. Seems very little if any evidence, probably just witness of the police. A good lawyer can easily shatter the police's words. At least it will be tough to proof concretely in court that every single one of the 13 vehicles had clear wrong-doings. A lot of it is just 'bling car + kids is a sin in itself' type of mentality, which in a way is just wrong. They have rich parents, that's not a sin. Given the opportunity many people would do it themselves (get a bling car) esp if at that same age.
Supt. Norm Gaumont, RCMP officer in charge of traffic enforcement for the Lower Mainland, said their penalty would have been much stiffer had they been caught on video, radar, or if a police officer had seen them racing.
"I know there's a lot of disappointment, wondering why we only charged them with an offence of $196. They fact of the matter is, we have to look at all the evidence we have and what we're able to prove," he said. "That's why we've charged them with driving without due consideration for the public."
That said, I am not condoning doing stupid things on the road. I am usually one of, if not THE slowest driver on the road LOL... (gas cost is friggin too much for me....).

I think the #1 problem here is the N license and doing such speed while going in/out traffic.
Otherwise, I have to say that driving my C4S at above 160km is actually a lot safer than gong at 100km with my older lifted Jeep Grand Cherokee when there isn't anything traffic on the road.
For those who have not driven a high performance car, it's hard to imagines how good these car handle at speed.
Just don't tell me the BS that it is unsafe to drive at 100mph while there is no traffic around on the highway, when truck towing a boat going at 70mph is safe.
I know if's not possible to define the our highway on what speed to go base on type of cars and tires, etc.., but they should build a race track that's closer to home. That way, they will do their gathering on the track rather than our street.
We all do stupid things when we are young. We promote safe sex to teens (Condom), instead of putting them in jails, then they should promote safe driving on the track by providing the resource.
PS: I usually go 10mph above the posted highway speed when it is safe to do so, but then I kept myself under control a lot better because I am 3x.
作者: chobit 時間: 2011-9-2 04:24
Other things I like to mention.
We have always been told by the media/pubic that speeding kills. The one thing you don't know is that many fatal car accidents involve not on ly speeding but DUI. It's the combination of the 2. Do you own Google search for more details.
Another problem we have these days is cell phone + other type distractions. I pay a lot of attention to my surrounding and the drivers around me. This help me avoid bad drivers on the roads, which is essentially defensive driving which we should all practice daily if we value our life.

FY, what makes you think people are picking on these young idiots b/c they are Chinese immigrants? Are you so insecure about your own ethnicity that you feel like you're victimized all the time? For all I care, I don't give a shxt if they are Chinese immigrants or not. I would have said a lot of the same thing if the idiot kids belonged to a different ethnic group. Anyone doing 200km+ on public road is stupid and a hazard to other road users.
Chobit is quite correct that high speed in itself is not necessarily a dangerous thing. But the biggest problem is, there were clearly other road users on the road at the time when these idiots were pulling their stupid stunts. The most dangerous thing with street racing is that there are other cars driving along at drastically different speeds, where drivers with vastly different levels of skills are present. If an accident occurs, it can easily get other innocent people involved. The streets and the highway also don't have tire walls and run off areas to help decelerate the car should anything happen to them. A median / barrier / lamp post does not cushion a car the same way as those safety installations.

Again, they are being picked on not solely because they are Chinese immigrants. More because of the price of the car, and rich jealousy. Crazy rich Chinese immigrants whose at the root of driving out local home buyers is even easier to target and exaggerate when any fault at all is found. Media and public attenttion will definately be different if these are not rich chinese immigrants, but white kids in beaters going 200km which is actually more dangerous.
All kinds of kids abuse their driving rights. I bet you (a penny LOL) half the male drivers here, and maybe a quarter of female drivers here, have had went 100% above the speed limit at one point in their youthful years. Driving 200k on the hwy is basically that, and they have probably some of the safest car money can buy to carry this speed.

I don't see the need to associate the incident with whether they are Chinese immigrants or not at all. In fact, if you read the news article again, at no point in the reporting did they even mention anything about the ethnicity of the drivers. The key points were:
1) street racing
2) high end super cars
3) young drivers
4) with N licences
Not that they were Chinese immigrant kids. They all add up to a lethal combination because:
1) street racing is dangerous and a safety hazard to the public
2) high end super cars can attain dangerous speeds very quickly, and generally speaking, the more power a car has, the more potential damage that can result in
3) young drivers tend to be more impulsive and aggressive
4) N licences, esp when coupled with the young drivers' age, generally means they have limited driving experience, skills, and road sense

皇家騎警表示如有充分證據，會嘗試把周三在素里和白石截獲懷疑非法賽車的13輛名貴跑車充公。這批跑車總值超過200萬元，目前全部被扣押7天，涉及的12男1女司機全是亞裔，最少部分是華裔；只有一人是登記車主，其餘相信都是向父母或友人借來的。其中一人的母親否認兒子在非法賽車，聲明會上庭抗辯。
警方是在本周三下午3時30分，收到多個市民報案，指在99號公路近馬西隧道（Massey Tunnel）以南一帶，有多部名貴跑車以高速向南行駛，車速甚至高達200公里。有幾次其中兩部跑車更並排留後慢駛，好讓前面的跑車可以比試鬥快。
警方隨後趕至，首先在素里截停6輛汽車，及後再在白石鎮再截停7輛，截獲的13輛汽車全是名貴跑車。這批跑車，包括1輛法拉利（Ferrari）、3輛林寶堅尼（Lamborghini）、2輛瑪莎拉蒂（Maserati）、1輛阿士頓馬丁（Aston Martin）、2輛平治（Mercedes Benz）、1輛奧迪（Audi）R8和3輛日產（Nissan）跑車，總值超過200萬元。
18至21歲 6人持「N牌」
皇家騎警低陸平原地區交通組主管高蒙特（Norm Gaumont）警司，周四特別安排記者到白石鎮一個汽車扣押場，展示部分被扣押的名貴跑車。
涉案的司機，全部被控不小心駕駛，罰款196元。他們的跑車，全部依例扣留7天，所有拖車和扣留車輛費用，全部由司機支付。
警方指出，涉案的12男1女，全是亞裔，互相認識，相信是準備前往吃東西慶祝其中一人要離開本地。他們年齡介乎18至21歲，其中6人持有俗稱「N牌」的第7級駕駛執照，6人持有第5級駕駛執照，其餘1人沒有本地駕駛執照。
這批跑車的登記地址，不是溫哥華就是烈治文，只有一輛登記人就是司機本人，其餘的都是司機向雙親或友人借來的。警方相信，這批司機的行徑是為了引人注意。
高蒙特表示，警方考慮採取更嚴厲的措施對付這批司機。「我們會研究是否可能提出刑事檢控，如果有足夠證據控告他們危險駕駛，我們會建議充公這些車輛。」
不過，其中一位司機的母親則致電本報，否認她的兒子當時正在非法賽車。她又對傳媒刊登其子的相片表示不滿。這位操普通話的女子表示，她會據理力爭，上庭抗辯。至於有關這次事件的詳情，她就拒絕進一步透露。
省公共安全及法務廳長龐雪麗（Shirley Bond）表示，今次是極為危險、魯莽和高風險行為的事件。法務廳可以根據警方的建議，通過民事充公法例，充公涉及危險駕駛的車輛。
去年11月，警方在北溫西摩山路（Mount Seymour Parkway）扣留了一輛法拉利（Ferrari）Scuderia 和一輛寶馬（BMW）M6跑車，這兩部跑車當時以時速約200公里鬥車。警方其後充公了這兩部總值逾31萬加元的跑車。
