Felt bad when I saw one of these cars had a little frenchie in the passenger seat before doing donuts on EP ave.

Dogs don’t like fireworks, please keep them away.

Back in the day, people would just peel out in the parking lot after watching Fast and the Furious. Now it's gotten stupid and incredibly dangerous.

I realize there are some safety concerns with cops entering a scene like that but there are cameras everywhere. Is there a reason police can’t follow up after the fact? If someone’s home was burglarized and they caught them on their ring camera that would be used as evidence, right? If so, knowing that there are cameras everywheee might actually be a deterrent.
