Sky's The Limit

[lukebaldan]

In the Sun today:

The Nissan Skyline has emerged as Melbourne's noisiest car in a police blitz on ear-splitting vehicles.

Over 1360 Environment Protection Authority notices have been issued in the first five days of the Operation Pipedown crackdown. Other main modified offenders were Subaru Imprezas, Holden utes and Honda Civics and Integras

Yer honestly I would have been suprised if lines were not number one.

Only a matter of days until prime time news starts talking about "a hoon has been caught at 14.8dB Over in the early hours of the morning"

I wonder how many have actually been tested, or if they're all just 'suspected' - in which case saying they're the noisiest isn't really accurate, but that's the media for you...

.......meanwhile most of Victoria's population are too scared to be in our city after dark !

Well of course, how could the labour govt afford more police when they've pissed so much up against the wall on Myki and other disasters?

Maybe this can of worms should stay closed?!

more good news

I wanted to email you about an important community safety announcement I made today with the Minister for Police, Bob Cameron and the Attorney General, Rob Hulls.

I am very pleased to let you know that our Government will deliver 1,966 additional frontline police over the next five years, to make our streets and our communities even safer.

View a video of the announcement

This is the biggest single one-off boost to police numbers in Victorian history.

Investing in more police is the best way to keep our communities safe – and our Government has a strong track record of delivering on its promises to increase numbers of frontline police. Between 1999 and the end of 2006, 1400 additional police were added to Victoria Police – and the Government is well on its way to delivering the 350 additional police promised at the last election.

On top of this, earlier this year we provided an extra 120 police officers to the force so Chief Commissioner Overland could establish the new Operational Response Unit.

And this is getting results - Victoria’s crime rate has fallen 25.5 per cent since 2000/01.

Police have also been given additional powers to tackle crime with tougher powers to randomly search people for knives and other weapons, tougher powers to move or ban troublemakers from entertainment precincts and some of the toughest anti-hoon laws in Australia.

Details of this announcement can be found at: http://www.premier.vic.gov.au/component/co...icle/10155.html

Victoria is the safest State in Australia, but we want to drive down crime even further, so that Victorians not only are safe, but they feel safe.

POLICE DID SOME MATH PROBLEMS AND RELEASED THEM TO THE PUBLIC! A+!

[blind_elk]

I would have expected Harley Davidsons to easily out-noise anything else on the roads.

[bluejeans]

oh but harley's were exempt - they 'sponsored' the blitz

so their money cancels out them getting done i believe, or so thats the way ive heard the vic pol run..
