there are loads of different reasons why people commit street crime as there is many types of street crime. there is robbery, murder, battering, slashing, drug dealing and more.

robbery can be stealing someones purse,wallet, bag or other valuables etc phones or jewelry. they might have to do this to get money to live as they cant get a job or it could be to pay a debt to someone who is threatening them. it could be a dare amongst friends to see if they are "man enough" or woman enough for that matter. it could be just because someone is bored and does it for the pure thrill of running away with stuff that they can sell for an extra £200 in their pocket.

murder,battering and slashing kind of come together in this one. they only happen for 2 reasons. 1. for revenge 2. in defence

Do biological or psychological traits predispose people to commit crime?

Both biological and psychological traits can play a role in predisposing individuals to commit crime. Biological factors such as genetics and brain chemistry can influence impulsivity and aggression, while psychological factors such as experiencing trauma or having a lack of empathy can also contribute to criminal behavior. However, it is important to note that criminal behavior is influenced by a combination of factors, including social, environmental, and situational factors.


How do people feel when they commit crimes?

A lot of factors determine how someone feels when they commit a crime: the psychological make up of the person, the type of crime, why the crime was committed, etc. If a person steals food because his family is hungry and there is no money to buy food, the person might feel justified in doing it. If a person kills another person, they may feel deeply sorry and regretful. If the person has severe mental issues, the person may not feel anything if he or she kills a person. A person who is deeply psychologically troubled might even feel satisfaction from killing someone or committing a crime. It just depends on the individual and other factors how someone feels when a person commits a crime.


What are the most common motivations of the crime of robbery?

Common motivations for robbery include financial need or desperation, substance abuse or addiction, peer pressure or influence from criminal networks, and a desire for material goods or wealth. Robbers may also engage in the crime to exert power or control over others.


What does perpertrait mean?

There seems to be a typographical error in your question. "Perpetrate" means to carry out or commit a harmful, illegal, or immoral act, such as a crime or fraud.


Why do people turn to crime?

People may turn to crime due to factors such as financial difficulties, lack of opportunities, peer pressure, or growing up in environments where crime is normalized. Other factors like psychological issues, substance abuse, or a desire for quick gains can also contribute to individuals engaging in criminal activities.
