The cruisers were celebrating after
getting the law changed:
Olivia Fonseca stood near her light blue 1952 Chevrolet Deluxe, parked along Broadway late Saturday afternoon in Sacramento.
Four days earlier, Fonseca appeared virtually as a member of a group that had formed in recent months, the Sacramento Lowrider Commission, urging City Council to end Sacramento’s 34-year anti-cruising ordinance, which council quickly unanimously agreed to do.
And now, with an assortment of classic cars starting to slowly maneuver up and down the boulevard, near the 4 p.m. start for an event planned before the council’s action, Fonseca and others could celebrate.
“My gosh, it’s liberation,” Fonseca said. “That’s what it means ... you don’t have this fear factor that we’re out here and we’re going to get stopped and we’re going to get a ticket.”
