From dancing to lowriding, Cinco de Mayo festivities are well underway across the Bay Area.
Outrage is coming from state and local leaders toward how San Jose Police Department and Caltrans handled Cinco de Mayo celebrations this year.
The rain didn't put the brakes on the lowriders, or the dancing horses from celebrating Cinco de Mayo in San Jose Friday. Many who came out say rain or shine, it's important to keep the culture alive.
Cinco de Mayo is extra special this year following the no cruising ban was lifted in San Jose last year. "I always say, the city has already proven they've embraced the lowrider community."
The event offers a look at the past, present and cars of the future.
"It's a historic day! It is a historic day!" The lowrider community celebrated the removal of a decades-old ban on cruising in San Jose with the final "No Cruising Zone" sign being taken down.
