"To: Ontario Government
Petition to Revise Ontario Street Racing Legislation
The purpose of this petition is to demonstrate to the Ontario Government the opinion of Ontario citizens who feel that penalties in the recently implemented "street racing" legislation are unacceptable and must be changed.
Most notably, we feel that the 7-day car seizure and licence suspension penalty levied roadside by a Police Officer, with no recourse for the accused regardless of the Judge's court ruling is unacceptable as it violates our Charter Right to Due Process. "

Yes, but Tom, the concern here is with people who haven't broken the law.   The law is written as such that a police officer can arbitrarily say you were 'street racing' or that he believes you to have been 'street racing', and instantly you've lost your license for 7 days and you're paying for a week's worth of impound fees.  

And even if you win in court (or it gets thrown out because it's clearly a ludicrous charge), you're still stuck with the thousands of dollars in impound fees, towing fees, and aren't reimbursed for the money potentially lost while you were unable to go to work.
