CHARLOTTE, N.C. (WBTV) - A new law goes into effect Friday in North Carolina, with the goal of putting an end to street takeovers.
In Charlotte, a number of street takeovers have happened outside the NASCAR Hall of Fame in uptown.
...
The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department has already started cracking down on these street takeovers, creating a special taskforce to handle them.
So far, they have issued 138 citations, made 31 arrests and are closing in on seizing almost 100 cars.
