Time and place, people.

Totally agree... see some of the discussion from the Autumn 2014 cruise... it's a pity that the user axxessdenied took down his video from youtube... he definitely showed some stupid things not to do - especially using merging lanes to pass people.

Of course I'm just speculating here but this is rather concerning just based off what the article said.
Bottom line is don't do dumb shit to put yourself in that situation in the first place. With dash cams rampant (not to mention the risk to safety), it's best not to do these things on such busy highways.

I watched the video after my first post, and I was thinking the same thing. The cops must have gotten some eyes on them, because they can't just issue tickets on the say so of witnesses alone. They have to catch them in the act. I bet some of those drivers of the confiscated cars will be able to fight it and win.

Lets not be kidding ourselves, with ALLL the social media posts, the police KNOWS what is going on, WHEN and WHERE! So its very normal that they bust a few "cruises"...

Now for my new mods and toys to arrive, and then this weather to break. I need M in my life.
