...over 100,000 migrant workers from the “Pearl Triangle” area (cities like Foshan, Dongwan, and Guangzhou) grouped together to become “the great returning-home motorbike army”. They strapped on warm clothes and important possessions, bundled up their family members, headed onto the highways
en masse to get home for the holiday. To ensure their safety, especially in treacherous weather conditions, they were guided by 20,000 police officers as they rode together down highway 321.

Remember to never split an infinitive. The passive voice should never be used. Do not put statements in the negative form. Proofread carefully to see if you words out. And don't start a sentence with a conjugation. (William Safire)
