A horde of young people disrupted traffic on a major Philadelphia highway this weekend.
The incident was captured on camera and posted Sunday on social media by multiple witnesses.

The only time we ever saw a bunch of them on bikes when I was a kid, was when they came to the neighborhood and stole them.
this is a good thing
streets are for people
“”5 finger discount?””

You found the proper tool
Bowling for Bikers!
"RAMMING SPEEEEEEEEEED!!!!!!"
The police were too scared to show up. Just like there were no police standing ready to round up the thugs in the BART.
Comparing the amount of damage a 20 pound bike with a 100 pound loser can do to a car, and the damage a 3,500 pound car can do to the bike and the thug-in-training on it . . .
Why...? Just to be little assholes?
BLACK TEENS...why can’t they say it? Like not saying “Islamic Terrorist”. You have to admit to the problem if you want to solve it.
It's not a street. It is a high-speed expressway in an open-top tunnel with bridges across it. It was excavated and built at great taxpayer expense and years of commuter inconvenience to move traffic rapidly across a dense urban area. There are plenty of ordinary streets up above on ground level.
Would you let your teen ride a bike on a high-speed eight-lane highway with cars and trucks exceeding 50 mph?
EVERY. SINGLE. TIME, that I go into Philly, it's a friggin s**t-show.
I still have Family in Philly but I avoid the city for all else.
Longing for the good old days of Police Chief and Mayor Frank Rizzo.
Now that just screams, “Get Off My Lawn!”
“Longing for the good old days of Police Chief and Mayor Frank Rizzo.”
In some ways Frank Rizzo was Trump before Trump was Trump:

this highway blights the neighborhood and should be removed, the pre-existing street grid removed and the property returned to original owners or their estates.
Hey Neighbor.
Couldn’t agree more.
We hit Longwood Gardens on Saturday. Even with the rain it was still beautiful.
