Critical reception Mordaunt Hall of the The New York Times commented that "rapidity of action, competent performances [and] periodical wisecracking volleys" were the main ingredients of the film, but "little can be said in favor of the story, for it is wholly implausible, whether it is concerned with stealing automobiles, murder or love."
The Film Daily wrote that the film "is done in the realistic technique, and is very effective ... [it delivers] a big emotional kick throughout, and a terrific object lesson against reckless driving."
