What fake or inaccurate claims are widely accepted as true that you would correct if you could?

I wouldn't correct it widescale, it keeps things better in general, buuuuut Ill tell the truth here because it is irrelevant.

police pursuits - "you can't outrun a radio"

its pure propaganda bullshit. yes you can. every single day.

Been racing for 20 years. there are only so many cops. they don't even fucking radio to other units or anyone else half the fucking time when you blow by them, because they know you aren't stopping, and they know they aren't catching you. aside from the numerous no chase policies that exist basically everywhere now due to the fact that police fucking suck at pursuits and kill innocent people all the god damn time in the process, and then get sued for millions.

essentially if you are JUST speeding they really wont fuck with you in almost all places. they go hard in cali sometimes. but most of those clowns dont know shit. you think they don't race in cali? they do. phoenix and florida are tough too. troopers always go harder though wherever you are.

as well, they have to light YOU up to pop you with fleeing and evading. they can't make that shit stick if you go by at 150 or whatever, and then one of their units comes upon you. besides they have to have proof it was you. basically impossible.

the only way you get popped going fast is if

a - you arent actually fast. b - you are a fucking retard and run out of gas. c - your vehicle is a piece of shit and something breaks. d - you are an asshole and crash

other than those things, street racing is just a free for all.

and here come the retards wanting to post about WELL THEYLL GET YOUR TAG AND THEN COME ARREST YOU. You people thinking that thought, you have never raced, so shut your fucking face. you don't know what the fuck you are talking about.

anyone who races regularly has fake tags, obstructs their tags, dead legit tags, or doesnt run tags when they are out havin fun.

stupid kids will run around with legit tags. no one else does that shit.

the real issue are drones and cameras these days. it wont be long before they put a stop to all of it except for the MOST dedicated people.

also, whenever a department gets a bunch of new model cruisers, you can always find a couple of cops who will run you for fun late at night on the highways just to see how fast they are. cops are dudes. they like to have fun.
