CNN’s Ghost Riding the Whip Scare-a-Thon
(skip the first 1:40 minutes or so of this video unless you want to hear some rambling)
This latest CNN news story breaks the full scale Ghost Riding the Whip related crackdown going on.
“in Stockon they passed an ordinance specifically targeting these kinds of stunts”
The ordinance mentioned, passed on June 26, 2006 targets street racing and sideshows. Ghost Riding the Whip is never mentioned, the act of getting out of your car and ghostin’ isn’t even described.
“they (police) have already impounded some 400 or so vehicles and handed out more than 1500 citations”
I wonder how many of those 400 impounded whips were really ghost ridden.
Interestingly enough CNN points the finger at “the internet” for spreading the ghost riding menace among the impressionable youth. Surely this was an attempt to blacken the reputation of the new media to which it is rapidly losing ground. However, we at ghostridethewhipblog.blogspot.com embrace our role as the purveyors of the ghosting lifestyle which has brought joy into the lives of thousands, if not millions. Try to ghost ride without a smile on your face... you can’t.
And lastly, do we really need to hear about ghost riding from Vit Patel? If you want a ghost riding interview get one with any of the following: LIL-ANT, HOEZAY, GUNG HO, JOSE, EL THE SELF IMAGE & THA HOMIEZ

For what I do, I don't see it a problem. I just Ghost Rided the Whip with my friends in our high school parking lot with an SUV, and it was amazing. We're kind of safety-conscious, so we're not going to go into any streets until we're ready. But this is such a great movement. I really hope my city doesn't ban it.

I'm as supportive of ghost riding as the next man, and think its a great fucking thing. In terms of your review of the law, you make good points. However, the fact that ghost riding specifically is not mentioned, does not make it legal. I'm sure it would fall under reckless driving, which is mentioned.
Good words.
