Everyone in that video not in a vehicle should be charged. What an idiot.

Speaking of Houston --

Am I the only one who remembers when Huey Lewis and the News played on Beltway 8 when it was being opened in the early 1990s?

There was SO MUCH BEER on the road that when they opened it after the concert cars were sliding around and wrecks ensued so they had to temporarily 'reclose' the freeway and hose it off.

What an a-hole. Typical "everyone look at us! We think we're so special and important" mindset that seems to be becoming pervasive among engaged couples and soon-to-be parents.

Everyone check out my gofundme page to help me pay my fine!"

He thinks he's getting over by getting help with the fine? Smug motherfricker. If I were the judge, I'd give him the 6 months and make him serve every fricking day of it.

Wow, frick this attention whore a-hole. Pretty damn presumptuous to think there weren't some people with likely very important things going on. Wonder how he'd feel if he prevented a pregnant mother from giving birth in an ER or something else.

Not to get all grumpy old man or anything but you can thank Facebook, Instagram, etc, for shite like this. It's created one of the most narcissistic societies the world has ever seen. These people were on some national show a few days ago giggling and laughing about this little stunt like they just cured fricking cancer. Both of them are wastes and everyone out of the vehicle should be charged as well.

Lay down the hammer on this turd. Max penalty, set the bar for douchebaggery like this.

Edit - no jail time, make him serve 20 hrs community service a week for trash pickup on the shoulders of the interstate he shut down for five years.
