third offence= 28 days confiscation with police being able to apply to the courts for forfieture of the car to be resold.

new laws
first offence = 3 months confiscation
second offence= within 5 years, car automaticaly crushed

We dont tolerate hooning at all,at the moment if youre convicted its a 48hr confiscation
we are going to increase that to 3 months
if you do it again the GOVERNMENT will actually crush your car
it will be the toughest law in australia
if a young person sees their hotted up car being crushed, it wont take long for the message to get around on facebook. [quote]

Do you agree with that Ash, considering what the real crims get away with.

I would have thought that the existing tough laws were working quite well going by the statistics

Welcome to queensland and the good old days
