The lowrider is back: The glorious return of cruising to the streets of LA

Dozens of car lovers come to Van Nuys Boulevard for a long-running cruise night. It’s a monthly meetup of lowrider and custom vehicle owners but also a street party. Onlookers post up on the sidewalk, sometimes with folding chairs and coolers. The sounds of funk, freestyle and R&B oldies ooze loudly from passing cars. Masks are mandated, at least on the fliers. Sometimes people get up and boogie. Cruising is back in a major way all around Southern California.
