  • No. this is reckless driving. running your car's engine wide-open, is considered reckless driving or drag racing, in some states. The reason behind this law is that accelerating that fast, in that short distance and time, does not give you full control of your vehicle. Example: a child darts into your path, chasing a ball. you, at wide-open speed to reach 60 mph as quickly as possible, could not stop your vehicle before impact. Its lack of vehicle control, which is mandatory in each state.
  • Depends on the cop. However, the law says that you MUST use safe driving techniques, even though this may be perfectly safe, it is looked upon as unsafe in most legal cases, so it is best to just humor the officer and just take it a bit, should I say, "easy."
  • Another thing you might be ticketed for is unnecessary noise if your tires screech or your engine revs really loud.
  • How about if no one sees you do it, go for it lol!
