If you do burnouts in your car at this local event, you can be charged
SALEM, Ohio (WKBN)- The City of Salem wanted to make the public aware of a new state law that was passed regarding burnouts. The city announced on Facebook that it will be abiding by a new law that prohibits activities like burnouts, wheelies and street racing. The post reads that drivers can be charged with a first-degree misdemeanor if they are street racing, stunt driving or participating in a street takeover. Offenders could face sanctions and have their driver's license suspended for up to three years. The city said that people who assist with this behavior will also be charged. Ohio Revised Code defines 'street racing' as the operation of two or more vehicles side-by-side at an accelerating speed in an attempt to out-distance each other. A 'street takeover' is the action of blocking or impeding the regular flow of traffic on a public road, street, highway, or public property that is open to the general public for street racing or stunt driving. Ohio Revised Code defines 'stunt driving' as performing or engaging in burnouts, doughnuts, drifting or wheelies, or allowing a passenger to ride either partially or fully outside of the vehicle while operating that vehicle.
