18．A professional skateboarder is probably facing jail time after uploading a video that shows he was skating at a shocking 68mph through the middle of traffic．
South African skater Decio Lourenco faces the charges after Cape Town city officials say his high-speed sating actually attracted a speed camera．The speed limit for skating in the town of Lourenco is 37mph．"The boy's behavior was very dangerous．He might cause one of the motorists to panic and crash into other vehicles，which can lead to a large number of deaths．We have already had such cases on that road before，"safety spokesman Jean-Pierre Smith，told the New York Daily News．"If we don't take action against him，every other skateboarder will stry it and one of them will come to a sticky end．"
It's hard to deny that what the boy did was dangerous，particularly with oncoming traffic in the opposite lane．But Lourenco is a professional and Kloof Nek，the road he speeds down，has been used for professional skateboarding events in the past．Besides，at the end of his YouTube video of the dangerous behavior he really tries to discourage others from attempting to recreate his feat （技藝表演），which has already been viewed more than 600，000since it was posted on January 26．
However，as a journalist pointed out，the past skateboarding events hosted on Kloof Nek have always taken place when all other traffic was closed off the street．He also said that local traffic laws don't permit skateboarders to skate on public roads．For his part，Lourenco，24，says he doesn't understand where all the negative attention is coming from．"I've been skating down hills from a young age…often going much faster than that，"he said in an interview with IOL News．"This is the first time I've got any attention for it．"But anyway，what he did is dangerous，and others shouldn't follow his example．
