You know y’all helped the create the problem y’all report on and make money on. Ask the city council and KirkPWatson why they’re silent on this.

We're moving out of the Austin area in March. Not gonna miss it.

Absolutely STUPID. Yeah they think it’s all fun n games until someone ends up getting killed from the wreckless driving. Before you know it a girl is gonna get thrown out the window, run over & die all bc she was trying to be all cute during the chaos. Smh👎🏼
