Anyone know a Modern TV show featuring cars driving recklesly?

Not a TV show, but there is Fast and the Furious...and all of it's many sequels.

Let's see...TV shows with cars being driven recklessly...

Oh, right: all of them.

But seriously, on the reality side, there's Fast and Loud on Discovery.

Supernatural sometimes has some fun car stuff. Archer (note that it's a cartoon) is—in many, many ways—the ironic descendant of The Dukes of Hazard, and it has the most absurd car chases. It's also brilliant, but a cartoon might not be that helpful.

Kewii'a suggestion of Fast and Furious is probably your best bet, though. The franchise is very successful, widely known, and has all the proper baggage for you to make your point.

While we're here, you may want to look at your sentence.

Ron was just waving in the first police car, who was ripping through the park like an episode from Dukes of Hazard.

It's grammatically all over the place. I think you want "which," instead of "who," but it's really hard to tell. Your wording also suggests that episodes of Dukes of Hazard rip through parks.

I hope that helps, and good luck.

Watch TV for about an hour one random evening. You'll come up with loads. OK, 24 has finished now, but even so, that was full of car chases.

Word of advice, though - I don't think this line works at all. Obviously it depends on contex, but I'd still cut it.

The question is, would your POV character reference Dukes of Hazard?

Bingo.

This is the only real concern. Everybody knows the Dukes of Hazard, the issue is the speaker/moderator's persona.

*Hazzard. (Sorry, pet peeve.)

Top Gear (The British one, not that lousy rip off over here) where they have celebrities drive a car on a course for time.

Grand Theft Auto?

There's a phrase over here that might work for you: Driving it like you stole it.
