Teen Driver Intentionally Hits Officer on 270 - October 18

[Anonymous]

Raphael Mayorga went missing in 2020. Obviously, he was found. Seems he has had issues for a long time.

I hope the officer sues the pants off the Mayorga family.

He seems to live in a modest neighborhood.

Who was paying for all those fancy cars?

PP here. I agree, but the street on which he lives is not expensive.

My first thought as well. I couldn't afford those and I am 30 years older than him.

Presuming he doesn’t pay rent, a modest job could provide him enough income to make lease payments.

I agree completely. I’ve been on an interstate in Ct as a high speed chase happened where the eluding driver crossed the median and hit cars head on. It’s an intentional act of violence. I also have agreed sympathetic in cases where poc are abused at the hands of police but I don’t care who you are, if you elude and start a high speed chase, I will look away as the cops do whatever they want. These people do not care if they kill people. They are murderers at heart.

Yes, it should be, but it isn't.

Another question is why it's legal to have cars that you can drive 136 mph. Why aren't cars speed-limited to a maximum of 80 mph?

Because it’s rare that anyone actually drives like this.

First of all, it's not at all rare for people to drive at dangerous speeds on 270. There have been several times in just the past week where I was driving on 270 and someone zoomed past me and all the other cars on the road.

Second of all, so what? What would we lose, if cars were speed-limited to a maximum of 80 mph? Compare to the police officer, who lost his legs.

Driving like this isn’t rare at all. It happens regularly and you just don’t hear about it. Listen to a police scanner anywhere around the dmv on a weekend. You can find your local police on some website. Someone shared a website name and I’ve listened maybe a total of 4 hours total over a year and you’d be stunned at the number of times they are dealing with a reckless driver. In Loudoun a motorcyclist was driving in excess of 120 mph on rt 7 west of ashburn one afternoon in traffic. The deputies could not safely chase. On Friday and Saturday night groups of youths will get together and race up and down 28 at high speeds. It’s hell for the police to manage. They arrest who they can. I’m all for cameras on the roads like they have in England. Anything to help the cops arrest these wanna be murderers.

I know a dad in a low paying job who did not have much disposable income who bought his useless son not one, but two fast sports cars. The kid had so many interactions with the police and I think got jail time for his reckless driving. The last one was for 120 on the Dulles toll rd. A huge percentage of my kid’s peers - early 20s, have convictions for reckless driving and duis. Even the boys I would never have expected. Something is going on here and I blame the parents. They are far too nonchalant about this. Most of the dads of these kids aren’t really bothered by their son’s rd convictions and think it’s just a rite of passage. I blame the parents.

You know their neighbors hate them and you know he drives like an azz in the neighborhood too.

You don't know anything about the parents in this case, and neither do I.

Also I think there were 3 fancy cars involved: a Camaro, a Supra, and a Challenger. I also have questions about how this 19-year-old got access to these cars.

People can blame the parents all the want but that’s not really relevant when the perp is 19 years old.

Would this stop other people? I hope he’s in jail forever at least.

No, I do NOT want this animal to be in jail forever. I do not want tax resources to pay one dollar for this kid who has no respect for anyone else's life. The death penalty is well deserved in this case.
And here is a thought: let's take the hundreds of thousands of dollars (if not millions over the course of a lifetime) that would be spent keeping this criminal in jail and instead give it to the officer who's life is now forever altered; who did nothing wrong other than their job.
I am so tired of all the resources going to the criminals and nothing being done for the victims.

Ok, I’m probably the biggest death penalty advocate on this board, and I cannot support capital punishment for a non-lethal offense.

Sorry, but the punishment does not fit the crime. If no one died through deliberate malicious intent, then that doesn’t deserve taking a life as punishment.

Ok. So under your logic can we amputate the offender’s legs?

They literally apply the same statutory criteria and penalties when your behavior results in someone being injured or dying, whether by gun or by car. But please let’s not let the rule of law interfere with your blood lust.
