What was this on the turnpike last night: 6 buses with a trail of police escorts?

Submitted by profmoxie t3_z628nd in newjersey

Around 8pm last night traveling north on the turnpike around Cranbury, there was a row of 6 buses all in the left lane with cop cars with lights on (on the bus/trucks/car side of 95, obviously). They were going the speed limit in the LEFT lane, really tying up the flow of traffic horribly. I eventually caught up to them. One cop car brought up the rear, then 6 "Academy" buses, then 3 cop cars in front all with full lights going, at least one of which was a state trooper.

Who the heck, in 6 buses, would need that much of a police escort? And why in the left lane and not the right?

Actually, they're probably generating enough revenue to cover this themselves.

I personally dislike sports in high school and college. I am also aware it's extremely profitable.
