OP here - wow, really disturbing.

Does this kind of thing happen with frequency?

It’s a street takeover. Young guys block off roads to do stunts.

Be thankful there was a police response. I live in an insanely blue state where these takeovers happen regularly and police aren’t allowed to do anything about it because it’s racist or whatever. I got caught with my kids in one, and a few months later there ended up being a shootout at one and several people were shot and killed. My friend’s teenage son was at it and ended up with severe PTSD.

Personally I think everyone who does these takeovers should be arrested and prosecuted. Nothing good happens when a bunch of young guys hopped up on testosterone get together late at night to engage in risky behavior.

Teens doing what teens do.

These kids are so dumb playing tough at the intersection of one of the wealthiest areas of MD, if not the country. What idiots. What are they trying to prove by causing a ruckus near two fancy country clubs?

I’m always shocked by how sheltered some posters are. This is not new.

Haha. Right next to the Town of Chevy Chase.

It's culture.

Was happening frequently on 495 during covid and police would not intervene.

Not all teens. My teens never did anything like this. Ever. Now they're in college and beyond with great jobs. These are kids who have permissive parents. Who obviously don't care where they are or who they hang out with. If they don't get it together they will end up in prison.
