A new and dangerous trend is taking hold, according to the Los Angeles Police Department, with big groups gathering on the streets and staging drag races and burnouts on illegal mini bikes.

Cellphone video captured riders on the mini bikes performing stunts, blocking traffic and scaring other motorists on Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu.

The engine of a mini bike is taken from a power washer and the speed of the bikes is achieved with racing parts.
