Since 1999, 34 people have been fatally injured in the Greater Toronto Area as a result of street racing activities. In addition, excessive speed continues to be the leading contributing factor in fatal collisions.

The Eliminate Racing Activities on Streets Everywhere (E.R.A.S.E.) Program is a result of the collaborative effort of twelve police services, the Ministry of Transportation and the Ministry of the Environment.

The goal of the E.R.A.S.E. Program is:
"to change poor driver behaviour through education and strategic enforcement."

Street racing is an illegal and dangerous activity jeopardizing the lives of innocent people. Andrea Pike, a 29 year-old mother of two was tragically killed by a street racer on May 30, 2000.

Andrea’s killer received a lifetime driving prohibition and was sentenced to two years less a day for criminal negligence causing death – a sentence that pales in comparison to the life sentence that Andrea, her family and her friends received.
