I think they said they were in an evo too lol. Anyone who has ever gone on a cruise with a bunch of nice cars knows how annoying it is when someone uninvited tries to join in.

+1....... I believe they did say Evo. That is why they were cut off around 3-4 from the other cars.

It's not like it rarely done, I've seen them do it for a bunch of bikes on the Turnpike. It is dumb that they have to do it at 100+. I don't trust the cops going that fast here they can't even escort the gov at 90 with out wrecking.

Just because they're rich and can afford expensive cars doesn't mean that they own the road. I'm glad those kids were successful in pissing those guys off, especially that girl who flipped them off.

Doesn't in the video but the report said they were frequently above 100mph. The turnpike exit to the GSP to AC is 70-80 miles so they had plenty of opportunities to break the limit... this was just a short clip.

This story has been all the rage here in the Garden State. The one cop that got arrested lives about 15 min from me.

I have a friend who was part of that caravan. The video posted is not the same incident, that vid is from 2010 and from a different car group. The way he described it is that over 90% of the time the group stayed in single file and did not intimidate motorists. Yes, the cops did cause motorists to move over to the slow lane but if you are looking for gross negligence there really isn't any. If you are going to drive that fast on private roads this would be the safest way to do it, I guess those upset over it are unhappy because 1) NJ taxpayers pay for this but don't get the benefit 2) you weren't invited. What's worse 1 car dipping between lanes at 80mph or a caravan, single file with police escorts?
