The Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners on Tuesday unanimously passed an ordinance to crack down on street racers, stunt drivers and those who organize or promote the dangerous but increasingly popular exhibitions.


“Illegal street racing is a rapidly growing activity in our community and communities throughout the country,” J.D. McClure, chief of the Gwinnett County Police Department, told commissioners before the vote.

Police have said a Buford man pulling onto Braselton Highway in July was killed when a street racer going more than 80 miles per hour crashed into his car.
