The Los Angeles City Council voted Tuesday to crack down on illegal street racing throughout the city amid an increase in dangerous speeding throughout the San Fernando Valley.
To combat that, Tuesday's motion will instruct the LAPD Street Racing Task Force and LA Department of Transportation to examine how traffic-calming measures like "speed humps, rumble strips, raised center medians, curb extensions, and traffic circles" can be used to stop street racing.
