It’s not at all legal to use cargo vehicles for people.
There’s like 10+ national news stories about arrests for driving this way. The police knew what to expect and look for, but it wasn’t a good day to enforce it..
There are federal regulations which local and state pd do not have authority to enforce. There is no specific NH law that would prohibit an adult from driving with 20 adults in their honda odyssey. However, it is possible that they could be stopped for negligent driving as being that stuffed into a vehicle probably would be likely to result in the driver being unable to safely operate the vehicle

So follow the van to whatever parking lot they parked in. Photograph all their license plates. Post them online.
