If you remember around Newark in the 90s, you understood what a carjack was. On the real, the video “Grand Theft Auto” had nothing on them. Almost like a hobby, there were warnings when you entered into the city in your vehicles. Visitors often pointed to the nearby NYC as a place of hazard, but the city that birthed the core of Flavor Unit was not to be played with — and just as the crime was pumping … so was the law enforcement. Enter in the movie, New Jersey Drive.

Jason and Midget were two teens that loved to take joyrides in other people’s cars. However, one day they unknowingly stole a cop’s car (already you see the set up). This film starred Heavy D and also a fresh-faced Donald Faison. The movie came out in the era of the monster soundtracks and it featured New Jersey legends like Latifah, Redman, Lords of the Underground, and Hip-Hop heavyweights Ill AL Skratch, Keith Murray, OutKast, MC Eiht, and Coolio.
