One appeal of cruising was that youths could evade the supervision of parents and family. Driving slowly down long, straight streets, preferably with many traffic lights to increase opportunities to talk to other cruisers or pedestrians, was only one part of cruising.

Cruisers would also gather in parking lots, particularly those of drive-ins, and listening to Rock`n`Roll from their radios. Sit back and enjoy the video, listen to the music, and if your were doing this back in the 50`s enjoy the memories. Please Note, my channel is free, i dont make money from it.
