Very few rules of the road laws apply in a parking lot. The owner would have had to file charges.
The stop signs are not ticket able. There just a sign that says stop. The speed limit signs are just a sign.
The red fire lane and the handy cap parking do apply. But that’s about it.

The thing I noticed is that the guy ran that brand new motor up against the rev limiter.

no applicable laws? They could write him tickets all day long for exhibition of speed and wreckless driving if they wanted to. parking lot or not.

Now when you get into accidents in a parking lot, there's where laws get a little grey. My buddy's 68 coupe got hit by some tard in a school parking lot way back when, and the police said unfortunately they could not file a police report because it was considered "private property".

Mo
sorry, wrong. Its privet property, Rules of the road laws apply to Publicly maintained right of ways( that would be any road maintained by the taxpayer). The property owner would have to file a charge.
Ask a cop. Stop signs at a mall are not stop signs in a court of law.

Look at like this, If you owned 20 miles of land with a paved road on it and you went 150 mph on your land, could a cop give you a ticket?

Go try pulling some donuts in a savemart parking lot and see what happens when the cops roll up.

(ive got plenty of friends that can show you some reckless driving tickets as a result of whipping some broadies in a parking lot--one had his car impounded for a weekend)

Maybe laws are different where you come from, but privet property is privet property in Texas. I have run those stop signs and sped right next to a cop in a parking lot. I haven't turned donuts, but I never seen the need also.
Again
you own a big piece of land with a parking lot and you or your friend do smokey burn outs and speed or what ever, and a cop gives you a ticket, Go to court. The ticket is non enforceable. Cops can arrest you for anything, that doesn't mean your guilty.
Cops can give you a ticket for anything, that doesn't mean your guilty.
Red fire zones and handicap parking are the only thing that cops can give tickets to on privet property and then they have to be called by the owner, (or why are they on privet property)

In Texas a enforceable street sign will have a sticker on the back of it along with a registration for that sign that is on a publicly maintained right of way.

Doing a burnout on someone’s privet property is not a good thing and people shouldn't do it. But no laws have been broken except if the owner comes and tells you to leave and you don't then your trespassing.

I would guess your frieds didn't fight the charge.
Ask a cop about tickets in a parking lot, you may have to pry it out of him, Cops don't like saying that there tickets are not enforceable. But then Laws my be different where you are?
