Dragging on the street does not necessarily = dangerous, because you can easily drag at 30-40 mph doing circles in a friggin' parking lot if you wanted to.
I will say however that it's easy for newbs to get carried away, sticking out their knee like a chicken wing, or trying to hang off so far that 100% of their butt is off the seat, neither of which are necessary. If you look at pro racers, the've already leaned the bike over so far that there wouldn't be any room to do that stuff anyway. So just focus on looking into the turn, keeping your upper body low and inside, and keeping your arms unweighted, and eventually you will drag.
