Birmingham Washwood Heath - Landor Street or The Track

This film shows the cars which use Landor Street as a track at night. It was shot by people from the Washwood Heath Youth and Community Network - who have been working to move this sort of driving of the streets of Hodge Hill in Birmingham. They are taking part in a pilot called the Neighbourhood Performance Reward Grant or NPRG. This short introductory film was made for a conference in The Hague in January 2008: http://www.wijkveiligheiddenhaag.nl

The police make it worse by moving people on, they'll only find somewhere else.
