Police need more info than just "cars dragracing" get make, model, color, type (4 door, 2 door, SUV). Best will be a plate number this way it can be tracked back to the registered owner. Police cannot chase because they are not allow to put criminals in harms way

funny how they get the state entitlement system to pay for everything yet they have 10 grand to put into a 1990 honda.

Drag racing in this general area of New Haven has been a big problem, on and off, for years. The police need to do some investigation and impound these cars, making it harder for these jerks to do this. I hear them almost every weekend, at the wee hours, but I didn't know where they were lately, because I couldn't see them. Anyone who witnesses this, please get lic plate #'s and descriptions. The NHPD should also enlist the help of the McDonald's staff, since they must recognize some of these people. Foxon is obviously not a place where they can put barriers and speed bumps, like the other locations that get used for racing, so they are just going to have to try harder to enforce this.

These sorts of things have been an issue for a long time. Thank you to the Register for highlighting them.

One drag-racing-related issue that the Register highlighted a couple years back was actually addressed through the creation of a "Quad Squad." That needs to come back.

Chief Limon wonders when ConnDOT's design of these streets will stop killing people:

It is difficult to get pictures or videos because its late at night on fridays and saturdays from like midnight to 2am or more and its not only cars its also motorcycles, if picture is taken it might be to dark and make of cars its a variety of make, models and doors.

We are trying to delineate issues that are current and need the city's attention to resolve. Any issues prior to 2013 are being closed. If your issue remains and needs to be addressed by the city, please either re-open or open as a new See Click Fix issue. Thanks.
