That's right ladies and gentlemen, there is now an entire department dedicated to hoons.

So for those of us driving well looked after Japanese cars, expect to be pulled over for a random breath test & license check more than ever.

Actually sickens me to think they just brush the hoon label over everyone AND they are wasting more and more resources on this.

I honestly believe a driver training day should be mandatory for all L platers, prior to getting their P's......AND the instructor has to pass them.

anyhoo enough of my ramblings

BTW....didnt Ken Lay get caught hooning not long ago? 54 in a 50 is hooning now isn't it?

Sounds like its more directed at people causing accidents by driving drunk etc. Maybe this is the new meaning of hooning? I'm not a hoon anymore because I drive a Jap car :action-smiley-069: , to be a hoon I'd need to be a drunk bogan driving a commodore at high speed :)

If applied correctly then it could be a good thing. I mean take the focus off the people who stumble into a 50 zone from a 60 zone and get done for doing 10km/h over to the idiots drinking and driving, going way over the limit and ending up in peoples yards and injuring people etc.

I hope the appointment of the task force means the courts starting doing their jobs, otherwise its just hundreds of thousands in extra policing which could yield more benefit elsewhere

If it turns into a defect people for having wheels 2" bigger then std even though they have new $500 a corner tyres on them then that will be a shame.

I am all for them cleaning up the streets, but seeing their dumb information really pisses me off...

"Of 8000 serious crashes in 2007 - 1000 leading to brain injury, loss of limb or paraplegia - only 40 drivers were charged with serious offences."

Ok so every week how many people die from bashings and stabbings in Victoria, most of which are in Melbourne, what do they get? A slap on the wrist and back out into the public you go.

They put together a top notch team or homicide investigators and best police around - because its so hard to pull over a car for speeding or doing a burnout? Wow don't they spend their resources well.

I am sure most of us here see more things than cops do, i have said to myself multiple times, if i was a cop... wow...

The department is just stupid, plain and simply. They have no idea what they are doing. Its quite sickening, i am just gonna sell my car and buy a bloody Swift or something.

The stupid thing is now that "hooning" is the real type of criminal activity and stabbings/bashings are nothing anymore as it seems like it. Cops dont focus on the real situation. This will not change nothing and only increase the deaths from random attacks.

a 93 year old or so got picked up for speeding a few weeks ago and was labeled a 'hoon' that shows how stupid it is getting..

cos yeah im sure he was driving his commodore which was lowered and had neons down chapel smoking his rear tyres..

the sort of corruption we see even with squads like this is pretty disgraceful. takes me back a few years to when jeff kennett got pulled over doing 140km in a 100km zone and got off with nothing, while a plumber on the same day in the same situation lost his license for a year. funny how that works

f*k this governments going up the shit...i dont even know the real meaning of a hoon anymore...it used to be for doing burnouts etc...but now your labled as a hoon if your on the phone. Like someone said...they want to get the road toll lower by 2017...but the population is just going to get bigger by then which means more cars on the road which means more conjested roads and more likely of an accident. Other countries raise there speed limits and it works..if your going 120 your more focused on the road...but if your constanly going 60 you start to day dream therefore you get dickheads running red lights n hitting people. Eg. Rocky the la porchetta owner. Anyways fck the government. Enuff from me.

oh and also..out of how ever many people have died so far this year..how many of them have been someone just rippin a burnout or doing 130 that drive a moded car (not under the influence of drugs or alchol) slim to non...99% of the people who cause this accidents are the drunk idiots. You watch...us import drivers are going to be targeted worse then ever boys...get your stock stuff ready n book an appointment at your local mechanics

They will always bug us in our lil rice burners. Therefore, make your car 100 per cent legal...... block off the blow off valve so you get that fully sick flutter, and flutter the shit out of the car next to cops. Thats what i do, after i got done 3 times and pulled over 9 times. All "random" checks of course. :D

    • Actually looks like a Nitrous setup now 😆
    • @robbo_rb180 I already have a NEO head on the shitbox 😎 Just needs beehive springs so I can rev it past the 8600 rpm limiter, then again pointless too, turbo is out of puff lol. Wen da gods let me win lotto eh?
    • Everyone I know with a90 supra at time attack aren't having issues with 3-5 fast laps so far and one is decent powered one too. Saw a k24 swapped 86 with a 8hp70 and big slicks and aero which had no drama's at QR and Manton Park. I've stuck a 25 row cooler in my setup with 8hp45/50 in the hopes of keeping the oil cool as I plan on some racing next year that 20-30min sessions. I've also geared my car so won't be using 7th and 8th gear too. @Dose Pipe Sutututu just needs to get that samsonas in already and have that tassie guy fit a head and rev it too 11ty thousand rpm. 
    • My embedded systems thoughts have me sitting with GTS on this. Variation between same phone hardware, should be small. However, the internal "intensity" or "volume" amount that say Google passes to the app, will be quite different, as the underlying hardware will be passing different levels for the same volume to the Google OS. Until the app creator has had each individual phone, and set benchmarks and calibrations for each, the amount of error can be quite huge.   It can even be observed by using different phones, recording the same noise, and then playing it back, they end up soon ding different. A big reason for it, is even the different types of mics used in phones have different responses, and different frequency ranges. Then you need to get into the DSP, and the variations in those, their sample rates which then effect their frequency range, and then the quality of the DSP, and what type of hardware conversion they do to for the ADC within the DSP. Oh, and let's not forget at the low level phones are designed to cutout loud sounds. It's one of the reasons they suck in really loud environments (eg concerts). The louder you yell, the more you'll get cutout too Note DSP is Digital Signal Processor ADC is the analogue to data converter. I don't have any real data on what the variation would truly be, however, chat GPT says in general, their output is typically between +/-2dB to +/-5dB of what you're really measuring. So realistically, anything from 4 to 10dB variation is possible even with the same devices.
    • 'sif the error will be that low!
