Fort Worth<\/p>\n

University Drive may have been closed to the public on Tuesday, March 24, but the roadway still saw plenty of action.<\/p>\n

An all-black car with a camera adorned to its roof was seen driving behind a black sedan and black SUV on Tuesday morning. Several cars and trucks were also driving ahead of and behind the vehicles.<\/p>\n

After a pass one way, the vehicles reset to do it all over again. This sequence will eventually be seen on the small screen in the forthcoming third season of Taylor Sheridan\u2019s \u201cLioness.\u201d<\/p>\n
