(KRON) — The drivers of six different sports cars were busted for racing at speeds faster than 100 mph along San Francisco freeways July 13, according to the California Highway Patrol.
Drivers in a Ford Mustang, Toyota Supra and four BMW sedans were first seen driving recklessly on the northbound side of Interstate 280 near Geneva Avenue, according to CHP.
'[The cars] were reported to be traveling over 100 mph and weaving in and out of traffic,' CHP said.

The cars continued onto the northbound side of Highway 101 when CHP officers spotted them. The officers pulled two of the cars over as they switched from Highway 101 to eastbound Interstate 80 toward the Bay Bridge.
'The Ford Mustang and a BMW M4 were observed by [officers], who respectively initiated enforcement stops on those two vehicles,' CHP said. 'The Toyota Supra and the three additional BMW sedans continued onto the [Bay Bridge].'
Two more CHP officers tracked down the remaining four cars and stopped them on Treasure Island. All six drivers were ticketed for traffic violations, including unsafe speeds and mechanical violations. One of the BMWs also had expired registration and the car was towed from the scene.

CHP called the ordeal 'a prime example of improper driving behavior and what not to do on our public roadways.'
'We are all for going out and enjoying a Sunday drive with friends,' CHP said. 'However, everyone has to drive in a responsible and safe manner. The posted speed limits are not suggestions and are set to help ensure optimal safety to all motorists, while also minimizing potential injuries to every man, woman, and children traversing that particular roadway in the event of a traffic crash.'
