Just another day in New Orleans (2 Viewers)

More stunt shows over the weekend . This is getting dangerous.

Will the city ever do something about this?

''No way in hell' this should be allowed' NOPD Chief rails against reckless street stunts

Several social videos showed the intersection of Calliope and Annunciation where cars were doing donuts in close proximity to a large and excited crowd.

Too damned stupid. They do that in DFW too but they peel out like race car drivers when the cops show up. At least that's what they show on the news.

Why can't they roll up with some spikes. Or better yet, install permanent spikes in the hotspots. If you're driving in circles when the street is clearly designed for you to go forward, you mess up your tires.

I don't know if it's technologically possible, but causing the spikes to 'activate' or unfold after sunset would cut down on any inadvertent mishaps during peak hours.

If they REALLY want to think outside the box, designate spots around town where it's allowed at your own risk.

I sound like the most broken record of all time, but humans are soooooo stupid. Frogs not out here doing stunts on their lily pads. They just be chilling...

Maybe you should post those videos in the Police Abuse thread. I mean, he almost caused that one young man to fall off of his hood as he was jumping up and down on it.

We could try shaking our canes at them - but like super vigorously, like we really mean it

Sounds like you are ok with what those kids were doing. Not worried about their safety at all?

Those police are afraid of being defunded.

Sounds like that’s exactly what you are doing.
You have a solution?

Yeah arrest their arses for being disorderly and reckless endagerment.

The gall of jumping on the police SUV must be from knowing the police won’t do anything about it. That’s shocking to look at.

I haven’t seen that stuff on local news in a while. We watch channel 8 mostly. I wonder if it’s not as big an issue it used to be, or not being reported.

The solution to a traffic problem is to enforce traffic laws

The long term help would be to fix neighborhoods and create more opportunities so kids aren’t as easily distracted

We could also get someone to direct American Graffiti:Tokyo Drift to help us realize this the same thing out grandparents did that our great grandparents got in a twist about
- don’t be an L7
