Ding, ding, ding. Can't ride my dirt bike 80mph down the beach in Malibu but have many times in the Seven Sisters.

Its illegal to drive on the beaches in Mexico. JZ bragging about disrespecting Mexican law and its beaches just because he hasn't been arrested for doing so. Natch.

In JZ's world, ignoring a county's laws is fine as long as you're a privileged white guy, not an "illegal".

You want Mexican law obeyed while you cheer for the breaking of US law. You are a disgraceful traitor

'Rules for thee are not for me' comes to mind.
By-the-way, skin color has zero to do with driving on the beach... and there are plenty of 'white' Mexicans. Shameful the racism, surabi.

Nothing whatsoever racist about my post. I am well aware that there are Mexicans who drive on the beaches and that there are plenty of white-skinned Mexicans.

I was referring to a specific person's attitude, who brags about ignoring another country's laws, while demanding that those who do so in his country be jailed and/or deported.

Your reading comprehension is poor.

And there are many areas in Mexico where driving on the beach is encouraged by the local government and the police and military join in on the cruising as well. Is good for the economy to have masses of tourists out enjoying the beaches.

Well, good, make sure you go to those beaches and have a great time driving along the surf.

Drive into the water too, that's always fun.

That's what I mean. Go ahead folks drive on the beach, it's so much fun. I'm sure the driver in the above video will remember his surf trip for the rest of his life.

Back on topic.

Does anybody know how the race car driver is doing? Any more news about the aftermath of the accident?

List the "many areas" where this is encouraged.

"Masses of tourists" decidedly do not "enjoy the beaches" where yahoos tear around on their motorized vehicles. They go to enjoy the natural environment, listen to the waves crashing, swim and surf and fish, and don't appreciate having to listen to loud motos, atvs, and other vehicles, scattering sand and gas fumes everywhere or having to make sure their kids and dogs don't get run over.

That type of inconsiderate activity drives tourists away to quieter areas.

There is little evidence the driver was injured. The witnesses say the driver and navigator walked normally to their helicopter.




Woke!

What about the fellow who was arrested last November after he hit the gas in the inspection area in Ensenada and two people were killed? What's the status of that case?

Yes, I mentioned that incident upthread. I never read any follow-up on it. 2 years in a row that these races have caused deaths due to driver irresponsibility.

Glad you are now educated on Mexican beach driving locations that are encouraged by the local communities and police.

May the man at the center of this topic rest in peace.

I didn't ask for a list of "fun beaches to drive on", I asked for a list of what you claimed were "many areas in Mexico where driving on the beach is encouraged by the local government and the police and military join in on the cruising as well". And upper sea of Cortes and some beaches on the Pacific side of Baja aren't "many areas in Mexico".
