OCEAN CITY — Among the takeaways from last week’s motor vehicle task force wrap-up on the late September pop-up car rally is focusing attention on the court system following through with a heavy-handed approach to those charged by police.
In late September, the pop-up car rally, as it is now being referred, brought huge crowds of largely unruly, disrespectful visitors who wreaked havoc on Ocean City for the better part of four days as expected. Ocean City, its police department and its allied partners were as best prepared as ever heading into the pop-up car rally week with an enhanced special event zone law, a beefed-up towing ordinance, altered traffic patterns and road closures and all manner of equipment and resources on hand.
Those combined measures worked to a large degree for much of the weekend, but despite the thankless efforts of law enforcement and first-responders, the pop-up car rally was a disaster Saturday night. As Ocean City and its partners ramped up their enforcement efforts, a large majority of the pop-up car rally enthusiasts ratcheted up their unruliness in kind.
The motor vehicle task force convened last Friday for the first time since the September unsanctioned event and reviewed what worked and what could be done in the future. Ocean City Police Department (OCPD) Chief Ross Buzzuro was asked what the next important step was in deterring the pop-up event in the future and he said it could come down to successfully prosecuting the hundreds of cases and meting out the appropriate penalties and fines.
You old people cannot stop us this year or any year.
Like you so remind me of my dead beat daddy.
My Mommy hired a great lawyer to represent me.
You old people will loose against me and my homies in court.
Your right brat! We ay not be able to stop you! But just remember this mentality because yes one day you will be old too! One day you may actually respect other people’s property, and the laws, but guess what there will be another generation just like you that won’t care! But this old generation will be gone, and it will be your generation that has to deal with them! Its a cycle! When you grow up and are actually responsible for your own actions, instead of being a leech to your mommy, you will actually understand! I personally hope that your child is the one causing havoc when your are more mature! Then you will understand! I honestly pity your mother but also blame her for entitling your attitude! Cudos to your daddy for getting away from the trash life!
Don’t forget to call us Boomers.
the idiots running oc are total fools. one good lawyer will get all those cases thrown out. funny oc welcomes all the trash that rapes robs and pillages but dont dare drive your car down the highway! dont worry my family and I have stopped going there years ago! yes it’s that bad!
Glad to hear your family has stopped visiting the area. Now you follow their lead and stay home with that piece of junk you consider a ride to be proud of. It’s likely like you, wouldn’t hold up in any type of competition or you would enter into some, instead of showing you ignorance on the public roads. Oh, I am your generation and proudly maintain a bad ass Street Rod.
YAWN!!
