Alfaro, Spain - March 05, 2025 A wild illegal car meet in La Rioja has sparked a major police hunt after hundreds of drivers turned a public road into a drifting danger zone. The Guardia Civil is investigating five men, aged 19 to 40, caught on video performing jaw-dropping stunts with near 200 vehicles and 600 people watching in chaos. Footage shows cars drifting inches from terrified pedestrians, who scramble to dodge the skidding tyres. One clip captures a passenger dangling out of a speeding car, unsecured, risking a deadly fall. Another car drifts tyre-less, its rim grinding the road, throwing sparks. The madness erupted at La Senda industrial estate in Alfaro, where drivers blocked traffic with no care for safety. The Guardia Civil’s GIAT traffic squad jumped on the case after spotting the reckless scenes on social media. They’ve pinned down five suspects across La Rioja, Álava, and Navarra, charging them with reckless driving showing “manifest contempt” for lives. A sixth faces flak for setting up the mayhem. Cars zipped at breakneck speed, crisscrossing paths, while some pulled donuts, nearly mowing down bystanders. In one heart-pounding moment, a group grabs a revving car to halt it, only for the driver to floor it, endangering all nearby. The drifting madness broke countless traffic rules, cops say, and it’s a wonder no one died. The videos reveal sheer indifference to the peril, with drifts so close that people leapt aside to survive.
