there is a car in that pic?
Coming home from work this morning to see most of the road leading to the street i have to turn down are blocked.
After i went around i saw a VY/Z ute sitting on the footpath.
Went arounf the other side, and there was also some little green car. Going by the minimal damage on the front of the ute, i think the green car was the cause, and hit the ute coming out of a side street.
Either way, when i was walking past, channel 7 just rocked up, so no doubt there'll be a totally unrelated (but related) hoon story to follow.
EDIT - Some better pictures (probably taen with a camera, and not scetched ones like mine.....

TVR-190: That LSD service paid off. Stato just got very sideways.
Grennan: In a stato, the term is held starboard.
Turns out there is a p plate on that ute.
Just said on the news, it was a high speed chase. And 2 people in the green blur died. They were looking at the red light camera footage when i went past before (which is about 500 metres down the road)
Looking forward to the advertisers front page tomorrow......

Well the guy was 30 they said.
Apparently he was reported doing burnouts on Main north road, then ran.
This couldn't have gone any better as a warning to police/governments of what will become the norm because of their stupid rules.

Would you prefer a 30yr old' p plater(read repeat offender?) capable of this carnage allowed to keep his 6 litre ute? (i live in adelaide too)
This was an accident looking for a place to happen.
Condolences to the families involved..
I'm looking at it from the flip side, He only ran because they were going to impound his car. They were only going to impound his car because he was doing burnouts on the street, and he was only doing burnouts on the street because there isn't anywhere open that you can do them legally.
There are other ways to solve the problem, impounding just appeals to them because it gets more votes from older people (note most of thier voters).

Yeah the Ute with the p plates with the 30yo driver was the one in the highspeed chase. The green car was just on the other side of the road.

no longer a hoon by association - the commodore is gone
****, was hoping for once the P plater was not the cause

I understand where your coming from mate.
Consider this though, you are familiar with the area, how fast would he need to be going to lose a chasing cop car over such a short distance?
Having driven past twice today, once when the cars were still there and through the scene this arvo, i doubt he was doing less than 150!
There would be no risk of his car being impounded if there was no burnout..
it was 2am not day time
the 30 yr old was out doing skids at night cops saw him and he deceided to run from cops, he lost the cops then crashed into innocent car just driving along
but im with stealthy stupid laws means they will and have had more high speed chases
the hoon laws dont stop hoons they take ya car for a week or 3 months meanwhile the hoon is in another car still beeing a hoon
stupid rules and gov need to drop it and make it diferent and these deaths wouldnt have happened
condols to all familays affected
Maybe not last night, but it was bound to happen, how do you get 'P' plates at 30??
If the driver didn't do the burnout, the cops wouldn't have chased him and this accident wouldn't have happened.
btw, have another read of your sig...appropriate i'd have thought
This specific driver was a wanker, yes, but the point i'm making, is this will be happening alot more. In fact i hope it happens daily until the government realise they've taken the wrong direction with this.
Hoon laws were introduced here when there became a problem. There was only a problem after our only track closed down (which is said to be reopening soon, but thats been said many times over the lasrt 4 or 5 years).
Do i need to explain it any better?
