OK, I can sympathise with the basic idea, but the execution of it does not appeal to me. Out of focus, blurry and moved. hope you're not tanking totally on this. Better luck next time.

odd that something so snap-shotish would created such a strong sense of conspiracy. I have no idea why this works so well for me, but it is my top pick so far.

Nicely done - great composition. Really looks suspicious!

Just a little too much motion blue for my taste. Also the bright white highlights in the top right are a bit distracting

If there were a bit less motion blur I would have scored it higher. Makes me want to watch a spy or action movie...hmmmm, maybe the Bourne Supremacy or something. :-)

Not a bad shot for the challenge, but I think that you could have cropped a little bit more off the right side to get rid of some of that white space.

Wow! How long did you have to wait for a white van? I hope you got it the first time! Well done.

HEY, that's my car! It was stolen three days ago!!

Just kidding, good shot though. Good use of motion blur, the white makes it the only car you can really make out, if the red didn't have its headlights on, the setting would be even more "dramatic". Really like the shot!

Give you an 8

for a conspiracy challenge this is cool - quite un-DPC-like, so additional points for that too - love the energy the motion gives, hope you do well...
