Sorry r32 chick nothing to hide!
Dan as wat i got,
basically it is against the Australian Constitution to penalise someone for the same crime twice eg. you robbed the shop, they can't sentence you twice for robbing that shop once.
It is the same with the hoon law, if your car has already been confiscated before going to court, you have already been sentenced. The police played judge, jury and executioner. Word it well and get the exact codes etc. for it from the Australian Constitution and tell the judge he can't take your licence basically as you have already had your car taken therefore served your sentence.
A case was thrown out last year based on exactly this.
I don't know the exact codes but if you ever got busted it could save your licence!
