There needs to be some type policy on chasers its getting so bad the pro chasers can’t get around to cover. So many rookie chasers making it dangerous for all, and delaying time sensitive reports

It can be argued that they're all "pro chasers". They're all after content, one way or another. Who is going to pick and choose who gets to chase a storm?

Meanwhile, these are the only ones trying to see anything with that storm:


Oh, and the one dot in the notch.

Agree but not sure how you regulate it. You could try licensing and such but anyone with a car and phone with a weather app could chase, and simply tell authorities they’re a regular driver heading to such and such and you can’t prove they’re chasing storms.

Outside of shutting down highways in higher risk regions to emergency vehicles and professional chasers only in not sure what you could do. You’d have to close all businesses in that region and patrol the highways. Would be difficult and cause a lot of backlash every time a severe outbreak doesn’t materialize to the hype
