what was his car actually impounded for?

racing?

I havent heard about a loss of license for first offence under the anti hoon legislation.

I thought, for the first offence, the police officer who has sufficent evidence of the suspect committing a hoon offence, has the power to impound the vehicle for 48 hours without a court order.

On the second or subsequent offence, the court may then impound the vehicle for 3 months.

2 wrx racing, and yer it is a she not a he ;) -lost her car for 7days first offence

cops aparanyly kept asking what speeds they got up to as they didnt know, but on the summons to court says they were doing 40k's/h over..:S sooo bs. but yeah shes heading to the court date soon so we'll see if she loses her licence.

In the very early days I heard the the Hoon Laws started off with a warning, with the next offence having the car impounded.

But I know personally, considering my car was impounded on its first reckless driving / hoon law offence.

Back when I got caught I wasn't made to pay any costs until proven guilty, however they have now changed this and you have to pay for the impound before you can drive away with your car.

If I had one of those banners, I would have stolen it. Would have been a nice sun shade screen.

btw, Kel wasn't convicted for her court case.

If they do this to your car, you can take them to court for discriminating against you. Why don't rapists have "rapist" tattooed on their head? So why should we have "HOON" on our car if we are caught doing something under the hoon laws whether it is a burnout or just something smaller?

no i dont think you have to go to Court because excessive noise or smoke is a 3 demerit point infringement but you can have your car confiscated for it.

The only hoon offences you would need to go to Court over would be the ones for reckless/dangerous because they cannot be dealt with by infringement

    • You're probably right about that one. Thanks for your suggestions, I hope I don't need a new 3rd brake light. Although wiring issues might arguably be worse. Right now I'm in the midst of a turbo removal because of my oil leak, other problems are going to have to wait for now.
    • Hell, I know that much. So far I just put it off as "part of the deal".
    • I removed the head expecting to find broken and bent valves, but instead found number 1 at TDC and cylinder 2 at the top of its cylinder stroke as well, thought that was weird and proceeded to push cylinder 2 back down until it either bottomed out on its other piston half or the conrod either way we found the issue kind of,  now to remove the engine and see how the block looks, hopefully its just the top off a piston.  
    • A little more work this week.  Fitted astra power steering pump in the boot with a lowe fabrication bracket. Gave the pump a good clean, fitted Anderson plug and high pressure fitting. With the intercooler being flipped under rad support factory headlights weren't going to work. Ordered a set of origin battle lights, they arrived so got them test fitted. Will require some fiddling to fit nice but was an easy quick option for now. And today we pulled out the manual Rb gearbox and test fitted a ZF 8HP50. It will fit with some casting tabs cut off and small tap of the tunnel with a hammer. Pick up the adapter plate Wednesday so hopefully all bolted in Friday and measure for tailshaft which will be a 2 piece. Been doing a lot of ecu, pdm and tcu loom design so when comes to wiring it in a few weeks will all go smoothly.
