Congratulations for opening back up Cruising. I grew up with cruising I really loved it. I’m from the Northern California we would go out to experience different cruises. I got to experience Hollywood cruise Whittier Boulevard Graffiti nights get inspiration ideas and try to make your car or truck motorcycle unique those were one of my greatest memories in life meeting new people I have my 54 Chevy Hardtop in the works when it’s done want to do it again all the hard work being sober for 21 yrs now it is time enjoy life again ☝🏽❤️🙏🏽
Please my brothers and sisters 🇺🇸 🇲🇽 don’t mess this up. Have fun but please keep the peace. Be sure to keep the young ones on check and please support your local businesses.
That's what I was thinking, the Pee Wee's and Junior's are probably going to mess this up too, like everything they do nowadays...
They will … it’s what they do.
@funfact8660 - Yeah. All those dumb kids with those stupid Edgar haircuts and those stupid Dodge Chargers or whatever they drive… hopefully it doesn’t invite the wrong crowd.
@louie8803 - Hopefully it doesn’t entice the wrong crowd to show up…. You know what I’m saying?
It wasn't against "low riders" - it was against cruising regardless what you drove
I drove a Yugo back in the day, and I was well know in SoCal for cruising many streets
I remember cruising Whittier Blvd, Sunset Strip, and Hollywood Blvd back in the day, I also remember the endless Beefs with different Groups or Sets from different parts of town. We'll see what happens with this....
Lived in California my entire life and never knew this was a thing.
Does cruising hold up regular traffic and emergency vehicles? Are people forced to use side roads if they need to be somewhere within a reasonable time?
Lmao. I grew up there and it was no bueno for anyone who actually wanted to go anywhere. There aren't a ton of side streets that go all the way through like whittier blvd does and its just as slow because theres traffic all the time. The cruisers used to use the side streets too to turn around and cruise down the other way. So yeah, alot of people were S.O.L.! It mostly happened at night and on the weekend though, esp sunday so less people in an actual hurry. But of course its all working class neighborhoods all around so lots of people were still trying to go to work or running their errends. I admit it was annoying sometimes! Also some act kinda dumb, lol. Yelling at you out the window just messing around being loud and obnoxious, lol. (All good until the bangers get drunk and high, then its time to head out!) Hopefully it will be more chill this time around 😅
Yes it does it’s horrible
Just leave an hour early and you will get there on timw😢
With gas ⛽️ prices at $5.00 I am not going cruising. I go to work and back home at most.
Them cruising cars give maybe 8-12 miles to the gallon. That benefits the state and that is why they saw interest into making cruising legal.
Hmmm … interesting way to see it. You may be on to something.
You gotta pay to play! Most of these low riders are like 50k +
@@Bossmann710 I know what they cost. I got rid of mine. It was something I thought I would had never done but it became a money pit. I decided to sell it in the end. I cried but yet I was relieved
State taxing low income communities off their own addictions
I was the last generation to cruise in the 80’s in California before they outlawed it. It was just a museum type gas guzzling car. Any car would cruise. It was about seeing your friends and hanging out. Watch the movie American Graffiti
I had a 1940 Mercury Convertible that I used to drive all the way to Phoenix to go cruising. East Mesa is where I lived and we would get a group of at least 5 cars to make the trip together. Man that was living, my how things have changed.
Cruising was popular in the rural south also starting in early 1970s. They had nothing to do on the weekend so they cruised Main Street every weekend. It ended in 2000s when the shooting started.
Spot on assessment, I remember well
Good for those folks glad they can enjoy their vehicles now ride on folks
Totally makes sense, how does this add to environmental policies of California? Senseless continuous driving up and down blvd's. Air pollutions in all regions increase. Good idea.
🤣 The Democrat Socialist Party Politburo in the proletariat paradise, People's Republic of California never actually thinks thing's through, or remembers actual history.

Another hypocritical bill passed by the legislature. So it's OK to drive an 8 cylinder car at 2 mph all day in a giant circle, but it is illegal to use a gas powered lawn mower. That makes perfect sense. NOT.
😂😂😂
It’s cute when old dudes in funny hats do it. Let’s see how you like it when the kids get involved with their “Fast and the Idiot” cars.
That's gonna be interesting.
I used to cruisin since the 90s in california after 2006 i started to see shooting in the streets and we had people messing it up for other's.iam gladd you can cruise it now in cali.
Let US Cruise it’s not a crime
Its a scam they know that equals more tickets/accidents
On my we cursed mzin when i was growing up! Glad to see it back. Pray its respected.
East Los!! As Legit as it Gets, Cheers From Modesto🏁🏁🏁
Um…. @abc7 Cruising was actually introduced from the movie American Graffiti in 1973 not from this movie you mentioned in 1979….
Wrong! Cruising was happening on the Eastside of L.A. during the 1950's and 60's. East L.A. caught on to the culture in the 1970's.
I understand drivers can now drive slowly but must they obey other traffic rules such as stop signs and traffic lights?
They won’t obey the laws
Their gonna close it down again if idiots keep fighting out there, idiots gotta mess it up for everybody.
Old school forever
It seems ironic that California would support old, gas guzzling monster cars with no air pollution controls.
Democrat Socialist Party Politburo forgot about that 😂
They're trying hard to retain the Latino vote.
They are museum pieces and cruising is not everyday. Its sort of like a parade/social gathering, that use to happen on a Friday and Saturday nights.
@@jaimetorres1034 and it's still not working 😂
Its the edgars burning out in thwir trucks rhat ruined it every sundat thia ywar
👀 The government will legally allow to open the gate to able to cruise. With a leagal purpose, Dui, hydraulic unregistered car meets... new laws get incorporated to bring in revenue on citations.

LET'S DO THE TIME WARP AGAIN !
Don’t worry Cali will try to back door ya and outlaw the cars you cruise in!!!!!
Keep fighting, stay strong
and watch your backs ! 👀👀👀👀
We want freedom !
Just in time for GTA 6
Get ready for more bang bang.
That’s what’s Newsom wants.
I used to love it, but it just got too dangerous.
Nobody wants to commit crimes in such beautiful cars. The cruiser community is mostly a bunch of middle aged family types.
HelloGoodbye… These cruisers are responsible adult car enthusiasts that have a LOT of money in these cars. Won’t be NO messin around!!
@@bullballsallday Ok but their kids and grandkids are all active members.
Gang members have jobs too
That's awesome.
Love being from the WEST COAST LA ❤❤🎉
I promise not to laugh when you move to Texas
great more traffic.
😆Lmao! My grandparents lived off the corner of whittier and rosemead in pico rivera and all the cruisers used to use their little side street to turn around and get back on the main st. She wrote letter after letter after letter until the city closed off their street so they couldn't use it anymore, lol. I remember as a kid there was so much traffic!
Also! Unrelated...but wonder if anyone reading this remembers the mangled cars the po used to put out on the corners to scare people into driving safe and sober, lol. They stopped when *sshole kids were messing w them, too bad. 😏
im happy to be part of dis culture w ma tio
Yes finally freedom cruising in peace ✌️
I live in Whittier I am being stalked by local car gang caravanes and friends. Ex neighbors from pico rivera

@@alksjdaHardly, paying $2.39 here in the free state of Texas.
@@alksjdayou're really overdoing that "LOL." Is that your argument for someone observing California policy? It's a rather feeble argument.
What good is half price gas when you have to drive twice as much because everything is so spread apart?
az hearing america haz freedom….
itz wild tu think in certain partz of america you weren’t even free tu cruize….
No, it's wild to see you're an adult, in America and you can't spell.
I was never a cholo but I used to go cruising with my friends to Downey just to meet girls. Back when Honda Accords were all the hype. Good times.
I had a 69 Malibu SS, Surfer style... the Cholos hated me and my crew 🤣
@@funfact8660 Lol jealous vatos 🤣
@@Lenny.262 We'd play the punk rock song "I'm a Cholo" by the Dickies while cruising 🤣😂🍻😂
Just don't slow down and stop traffic like those street takeover fools .
They will
Recall History allowed Vintage and Low Riders but took out Weho area Garden Club March- Ladies.
Any Pride Month Parade should have real Flowers as Straight Women Divorced forced out Parade Route- Women's Suffrage.
Catering to races because they about to be the majority shouldn't of never been outlawed anyways hold those and they people accountable for implementing these type of laws

Aren't those signs illegal and unconstitutional?
No. Cruising bans have been upheld in appellate courts.
@@owenbowen1090 horseshit, you may want to look up the definition of driving and traveling. Even drivers licenses are only needed when driving commercially. We the people have been lied to and screwed.

@@JoeStill-un9gp The Supreme Court refused to hear it so yes they did.
While people from Europe and Asia work hard, study, and have nice homes in the hills and coastline, certain other communities from south of the border have a fetish for cars that have no functional purpose. Instead of getting jobs, they want to show off their toys while bothering people who are just trying to get to work or go home. There need to be other laws to circumvent this madness from Sacramento

I'm sure regular commuters will be thrilled with watching all these cars hold them up in traffic.
The roads have thousands of cars, but 12-20 cars obeying traffic laws are a problem to you?
@@bullballsallday There's a reason it was banned.

Racism? Really?

Stop with the racism card.
Why don't you spend your time going after the school system that is indoctrinating the children in your schools?
Why aren't you complaining about the people looting and robbing your local stores?
Why aren't you speaking out about all the trash and graffiti that fills the streets?

When are they gonna legalize cruising public mens rooms?
The street take over clowns are the problem ne er the lowriders people need to sue the fast n furious

Good memories
Absolutely a despicable 'law' to begin with ... Then factor in its racist, and unconstitutional ...
The simple fact is, The State lays out the 'terms of the contract'...
We must be licensed, the car registered, and insured ...
PERIOD ... Where we go, how many times we drive down the same road, who is in or not in the car, how much gas you leave in the tank, where you park (legally), and any other meddling intrusive question the State may come up with, is irrelevant ... In short, the anti cruising 'law' should have never existed to begin with ... And its removal is the best remedy, to show equal justice for American citizens.
I better see all you homies n lowriders with your fine hynas and your TRUMP 2024 flags! 😂😂😂
A big mistake!
This is real culture 🙌 💯
Let's go cruise 🎉
Stupid 😒
