Driver Behind "Fastest Lap Around Manhattan" Is Jailed, Has Car Seized
Example #4,080 of why it is not wise to videotape yourself breaking the law and then upload that video to the internet: Adam Tang, who allegedly filmed himself setting an unofficial speed record in a drive around the island of Manhattan, was arrested yesterday for reckless driving. Police also seized Tang's 2006 BMW Z4, according to the Associated Press.
Pre-arrest, Jalopnik interviewed Tang (aka "AfroDuck"), who said, "You frankly can't identify who I am by just looking at the video and records were meant to be broken." Unfortunately for Tang, police were able to track him down using surveillance-camera footage.
