Cruising in Charlotte
Cruising Charlotte, North Carolina
This morning on the way in to the office, I stopped for some gas. As I was filling up, I heard a car revving the engine and spinning its tires. Two thoughts came to mind… “I remember the days!” and “With gas at $4 a gallon, are you nuts?!?”
This got me to reminiscing and that got me to thinking… Does anyone Cruise in Charlotte?
Growing up in a small rural town, I remember the days of getting in the car and heading uptown to cruise the “main strip.” We would drive from one end of town to the other just to be seen. Before long, local lawmakers began to “outlaw” cruising, stating that if your car was seen going back and forth more than twice, you could be ticketed. We just changed our routes!
But today I am 35 and that was years ago. Do teens and twenties still cruise? And in Charlotte, where would you do that? Does Cruising in Charlotte still happen, or is that a dying art form?
