:rofl: Idiots at 1:00am this morning in geelong have already had their cars impounded, 2 Probationary drivers 3 full licenced all caught laying rubber down. I say too bad. I believe there was over 50 cars impounded on the first strike last night alone...in a few weeks, no idiots will be on the road...hurrrrah!!

i disagree. what if you bought a car recently, discovered it had a busted diff from abuse by the previous driver, and were getting it replaced? not your fault if someone else did burnouts in your car.
if they catch you in the act, then you deserve to be punished, but they shouldnt just look at a damaged part on a car and assume that you were hooning around with it.

impound laws have been in SA for a good 9 months now
my mate was the first one in town to ahve his car impounded cos he was apparantly seen doin a handbrake turn on some grass.... i think it was a load of **** cos the cops didnt actually see it and there was no marks where it happened....
where i work is the RAA local office so we ahve to go out and collect all of the cars off the side of the road that have been labeled for impound,biggest amount of cars in one day was 11 so cops seem to be hot on hoon drivers in particular

Are we talking about the idiots speeding thru school zones (note, soccer mums in 4WDs) or the people out of the way dropping a few skids in an industrial area?

6 were done 4 excessive speeding, 5 for driving in a manner dangerous to public. They are the ones i know of. The latter is caught laying burnouts.

Doesn't matter where it is done, if it is done on a public road and you are caught then expect it to be dealt with. Besides, what exactly are you proving by doing a burnout? Any car can do it.

I can think of a couple of places near my house that the cops could book at least 30 a night for doing burnouts and do them for reckless driving.

The only thing I want to know is, if you see the school mums, 30+ male reps, couriers, etc speeding are they going to have there cars impounded?
