Police Crackdown On Internet Hoons

[HOON69]

now i wont point out thats a skyline etc but what'd like to point out is that if your silly enough to get your plates or face on the video for all to see then you deserve whats coming.

and we all know the police monitor all websites these days but how they gunna monitor them all?

good luck to you if you dont get caught but sucked in if you do,like you'd post ya info whilst hooning anyways :lol:

anyways whats your opinion? (plz dont go on a police bashing frenzy cause they aint the ones placing the videos)

[R31Nismoid]

Another load of sh|t media gone wild.

As IF the cops are going to be able to lay ANY charges for what someone "saw" happening on the freeway.

The "3" pics they have, good luck to em.

Fo all the court knows i could make up some donkey story aswell.

They are just scaremongering.

Just remember, to take the camera shots, the person had to use a Mobile Phone - thats illegal aswell.

I'd like to see that bullsh|t hold up in court

"sped along the shoulder to overtake a semi-trailer on the inside"......gumball rally anyone?

"she said the drivers were travelling about 80km/h" "there could have been an accident at any time" really?.....just because they they had huge exhausts and everything was it?

"the witness saw this mob of about 20 drivers braking and dangerously swapping lanes in a 100km/h zone.." haven't they ever seen typical city driving? but i guess that since they were in hotted up cars then they are considered hoons?

[HOON69]

lol i would hate to be the driver too cause if the cops want to fine ppl,then the driver of the vehicle making the complaint also should be charged/fined.

undue care and attention and using mobile phone whilst driving

taking your hands off the steering wheel at 80 is as bad as overtaking in the break down lane whilst overtaking a truck.

so catch 22 for them plus if the passenger of that skyline wanted to, they taped that car so they now have the complaintants plates etc so yeah not a very smart idea i reckon

anyways most pics n videos online are blurred etc and whats to say they havent been chop'd in some form,you'd need a forensic dude to tell otherwise,again catch 22 they'll have their hands full trying to prove alot of stuff they find.

good luck to em more time wasted when they should be protecting the streets..

waste of time really...how much can you prove on a forum, considering half a prob kids that brag about stuff, even though they dont have cars,

and the the other bunch are a photoshops, so u can then frame ppl...

"they had big exhausts" ....so coz my exhaust is an inch bigger than stock it makes me a hoon and crazy....such BS...if i had bold back tyres, maybe, but not an exhaust

not gonna work...another scare tactic.

"sped along the shoulder to overtake a semi-trailer on the inside"......gumball rally anyone?

I've seen a Jeep do exactly that and absolutely flying down the Western Ring rd one morning (like slowing to 140 in the service lane to overtake).. oh you know.. he had HUGE wheels too.. should have known he was a hoon straight away!

[TracidTrax]

omfg what next?

[ferni]

hah i'm waiting for the photo of the person taking a photo out of thier window of the hoon in thier car filming thier friends....

The police are encouraging people to take photos while driving? because thats safe isn't it

What about the next time i overtake someone who is doing 80 in a 100 zone, they pull our thier camera, take a photo of me and send it to the cops for being a 'hoon with a huge exaust'

[Ruffels]

hmm yes the police are cracking down...

potett is having a nice part in it also.. found out the other week that petett has formed a list of imported car that are over the power/weigh for p-platers, from his own research, i actually have a copy of petetts list.

Petett has been distributing his list to every TMU station in victoria and advising police about how to go about finding illegal modifications

i copped it sweet the other week when my once placid laid back local police station smacked me with a high powered vihicle fine... caught again 2 days later and was told i have no option, but to sell the car

fair enough i was driving a car i shouldnt be, but just letting everyone know... its no longer just a knoxfield thing... soon every police station around will be aware if you are, or are not allowed to drive the car you are driving on your P's

so becarefull everyone

^^^^^Bit off topic i know.. but meh

I think the club needs to issue a statement to the media to distance ourselves from this irresponsible behaviour, stating our policies and approach to driver training and enjoyment in the appropriate venue (DECA or the track).

"sped along the shoulder to overtake a semi-trailer on the inside"......gumball rally anyone?

I may or may not have done this myself at some fictional point in time...

"the witness saw this mob of about 20 drivers braking and dangerously swapping lanes in a 100km/h zone.." haven't they ever seen typical city driving? but i guess that since they were in hotted up cars then they are considered hoons?

sounds like a MCCR cruise

A noble idea, although I doubt it would do any good - we all know the media like to distort things.

f**k this shit... some of us drive our cars without being stupid...

i rekcon we need to make friends with someone on the "inside" write an article to show our side of things, that we like cars etc.. i know it wont do anything. but still would b mad...

Gee Mav - looks like someone's trying to out-yellow the super-banana.

Lucky we know you weren't in Gippsland on Saturday morning

PS: all the more reason for Skyline owners to partake in our off-street club events, where you can have loads of fun and 'hoon' all you like in a safe, legal environment.
