It's all a game of Odds..
X miles of freeway... if you have some one ahead and behind, it does not eliminate your chance of getting caught but it reduces it.
The problem comes in when 3 cars go to race and 20 slow POF's go to follow and watch.... then you have a cluster fuck.

I know when the Old school highway guys would go out.. you could make 3 laps of the toll way and not pass another soul.
Well you got dumbass kids these days that are spoiled by 400 hp mustangs so they want to race before they think. When I did my street racing over 10 years ago I rarely got caught actually racing, but when I did get caught I got tickets for spectating a illegal racing event.

Which is great for a track car taking a lot of driver error out of the equation.
