Accident by Belmont

This morning I heard on the news that there were a couple dudes racing westbound on Hempstead Turnpike. One of the drivers hit a woman in a Toyota, turning left into a parking lot across from the Belmont Racetrack, at high speed. The car instantly exploded.

I drove that way this morning, absent-mindedly. The scorch marks were still on the ground and a news crew was still on the scene.

A terrible thing. A foolish thing. What's really the fun in street racing?
