Members of Southern California's lowrider community are hopeful a bill introduced in Sacramento this week gets the green light.
"It's exciting because you don't have that worry in the back of your head that you're going to get pulled over," said Sandy Avila, president of the Lady Lowrider Car Club of Los Angeles."It's sort of like a therapy for us. It's like a pastime, a time for us to come together. Community, family… and all have the same passion."
Current law that effectively bans lowrider cruising has been in place since the late 1980s. It allows local governments to craft ordinances on cruising. According to AB 436:"Existing law makes it unlawful to operate a passenger vehicle, or commercial vehicle under 6,000 pounds, that has been modified from its original design so that any portion of the vehicle, other than the wheels, has less clearance from the surface of a level roadway than the clearance between the roadway and the lowermost portion of any rim of any wheel in contact with the roadway.
'The Great American Lowrider Tradition' explores LA's lowrider tradition. Video broadcast Tuesday Sept. 20, 2022 on Today in LA.
