Now i understan why I do not see street cameras flashing like when I was living in Belgium.

This year, we meet in a shopping center to start the tour. Around 20 Model As . When we all start to leave, there was a Stop sign at the exit of the shopping center. There was traffic and the first 2 cars where able to enter the route fast. But we have to start stopping at the side to wait the others. Fortunately, a police car was just passing and from distance saw the issue. So he stopped the car in the middle of the route at the stop sign with all his lights on and allowed all the Model As to pass one after the other. In that way, he helped us to keep the tour all together and to avoid a potential accident with the crazy drivers that do not care of us.

The policeman was a gentleman. Kudos to him !!!

At the same time I am 100% sure he was very happy to be at the correct time and place to see all the beautiful As passing in front of him using their Horns as a "Thank you !!"

Best !!
