Grants Pass Police cited a motorist for hot rodding around town last weekend.

Police said they observed Vannoy turning left from Ringuette Street onto US Highway 199 when he intentionally broke traction and drifted through the busy intersection. They said he failed to stay in his lane and drifted to the outer lane.
Upon contact with Vannoy, he had no insurance and admitted that he had a prior warning for similar vehicular exploits. He advised his tires were bald, but records showed he had a history of traffic complaints and video of him drifting and burning out around the city.
Vannoy was cited for Careless Driving, Improper Left Turn and Failure to Carry Proof of Insurance. He was warned for Reckless Driving and advised he would be arrested if he continues to drive in this manner.
