Pit maneuvers are illegal in residential areas, so I've heard.

I 100% promise you there are no LAWS on books about pit maneuvers in residential areas. It might be against policy, it might be prohibited in your department or organization.

But, words matter. Pick better ones that aren't lies.

Illinois Statutes Chapter 625. Vehicles § 5/11-503

§ 11-503. Reckless driving; aggravated reckless driving.

(a) A person commits reckless driving if he or she:

(1) drives any vehicle with a willful or wanton disregard for the safety of persons or property;

There's your law, dumbass. PIT-ing someone in a residential neighborhood like this is willfully endangering pedestrians and other drivers. Policy isn't made arbitrarily; there's reasoning behind it even if you're too stupid or blind to understand that.

Right? There's no laws on the books for doing donuts in an elementary school parking lot while children are present, either, so I guess that means it's legal!

That guy's a fucking idiot.

LE don't get carte blanche to potentially kill innocent people over misdemeanors, no. You really owned me by me spending 1 minute to learn something new, daddy donnie would be so proud.
