Huge Car Meet Broken Up By PA State Police



by Alex Lloyd Gross

About 5:30 PM today, a very large group of car enthusiasts decided to hold an unsanctioned car meet at the Park and Ride lot off of I-95 near Woodhaven Road. Police said there were several hundred cars there. The cars were just parked and people were milling around , No one was doing any reckless driving.

State Police got a call about this from a motorist and at least five Troopers responded. They drove around the lot with lights and sirens and the lot was cleared in about 25 minutes. Some vehicle remained, they were either abandoned by owners or their owners had taken a train trip.

People that do not move run the risk of getting their cars towed. As the weather gets warmer, people with nice cars will want to show them off and meet up. The problem starts when one or two idiots start doing donuts, or driving reckless. The only solution is to close down the entire event.

Many of the cars were driven to the Franklin Mall, while Philadelphia Police had their hands full clearing the vehicles as well.

    Annoying Juveniles, or adults with juvenile brain cells are pathetic creatures.
    They need to feed themselves with “fun things” to do, while disregarding others and disrupting society.
    Basically, they are lame brains that need to get a life.

      This seems harsh, I believe the post says they were doing nothing wrong. Would rather see this than drinking or doing drugs. Pathetic creatures??? Really??? Why are you so angry?

    I’m old enough to remember when the police were always friendly with the car groups that would get together. Same location and time every week. We would even retreat to a closed off area to drag race, and the police would allow it because we were safe and responsible about it. Many of us had years worth of salary invested in our cars, plus hundreds of hours of work. Yes, the ghetto criminal crowd has invaded the traditional car scene with these criminal “street takeovers”. But, the police have better things to do now, especially if the car groups are not behaving badly. Focus on getting warrants, guns, and drugs off the street instead of wasting OUR TAXPER”S MONEY on harassing a car gathering. Pathetic.
