in WA, that is the same section as excessive noise

ROAD TRAFFIC ACT 1974 - SECT 62A

62A . Causing excessive noise, smoke

(a) excessive noise to be made with one or more of the vehicle’s tyres; or

commits an offence.

It falls under EPA i believe

We can also be charged for causing damage to the road surface!

along with (I'm not sure of exact terms) breaking traction, noise, smoke, dangerous driving, endangering others...

the list goes on, all for a simple burnout if the wrong cop gets you!!
