New York rolling out noise law, listening tech for souped-up speedsters

I have never understood how these cars and bikes are allowed to roam the streets like they do openly all day and all night while police used to be so quick to arrest youngsters who jumped turnstiles or smoked weed

Because giving chase to vehicles presents a huge public safety danger on city streets. Unless you're talking about a suspect of a major violent crime, especially when the infraction suggests drag racing tendencies, the police in many jurisdictions are very limited from pursuit.

You don't need to give chase, just note the license plate and look up the owner it's registered to.

This line of reasoning is why cars get stolen.
