Sneeza Posted September 19, 2004 Share Posted September 19, 2004 hey Sorry to make ANOTHER thread on anti hoon laws..... but todays west reports that if Labour get voted in next election she will bring in that people can dob in other people for hooning. The WA road Safety council spokesman - Grant Dorrington - basically said everyone on the road can be like a police officer and have the right to report people doing the wrong thing. WHAT THE?? The greens have proposed that police time would be better spent training drivers, not coinfiscating vehicles. Which I agree with. Just because they get thier car confisicated doesnt make them a better driver.... they will probably just be more sneaky about "hooning". The greens are also concerned that peoples cars are going to be confisicated on heresay. the article http://www.thewestaustralian.com.au/200409...-sto129373.html I used to vote labour and was once a member of the young labour party..... but after this I refuse to vote for the pathetic excuse of a political party. What are your thoughts? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/51498-front-page-of-todays-west-hoon-laws/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
25GTT Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 My thought.... Vote the greens..... however would they bring in more strict emmision laws to save the environment?? See one way or another it aint looking good for us.... after reading that article though my vote has swayed towards the greens. It's amazing how close this issue does afffect us all, out of all the governemnt promises and procedures they talk about coming up to election time none of them reallly sway my vote to a particular party as most the time I think they are just talkin crap however the fact is they are bragging about this issue and the things they are saying about hoon laws I m sure will happen if voted into power.... It's a terrible thing for people to be able to dob in cars... instead of getting our skylines keyed by unanomous people they will be impounded instead...70 year olds thing I'm hooning when I am doing the speed limit past them, they make a call then BANG... no more SLY 33 :-( cops will prob used it down at nangara pines or sumfin :-) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/51498-front-page-of-todays-west-hoon-laws/#findComment-1019024 Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTS-t VSPEC Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 I thought the Labour party and Greens had come to an agreement on preferences, so by voting green you would also help get labour back into power.

JH32 Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 Yeah I'm very annoyed as well. It's ****ing bullshit. I saw a car get confiscated yesterday in scarborough .. the guy had only chirped his tyres. Anyway 3 pursuit cars,1 paddy wagon, 1 tow truck and no less than 6 cops later they took him and his car away. Great use of police resources Michelle Roberts you stupid bitch.

N I B Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 There must be no crime in WA as the cops have so much time to waste,HA i think not.

SimonR32 Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 if she enters that law, i will seriously consider driving around behind her and recording every singe driving mistake to the police and then giving documentation to today tonight or similar tv program.

SeriesIIGTST Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 Honest to god, this has got to stop. This could end up malicous with people dobbing you in out of jealousy, envy or just cause they are ar$ehol3s. I mean, "hi is this the police, i saw this young bloke/girl in an [insert import vehicle name], rego [insert rego] accelerate violently with some wheelspin. I was concerned for my safety and the safety of my 3year old kid who was playing on the road at the time. Please do something about it" and bingo! no more car for that person. It's one person's word against another. I can tolerate the hoon laws to an extent but this is just too far. :bs!: Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/51498-front-page-of-todays-west-hoon-laws/#findComment-1019306 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remix- Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 The older generation are going to love the ability to report hooning at their discretion and have our cars towed from the streets because my exhaust popped and disturbed nana sitting at home eating weetbix so she goes and tell's the cops i was doing 80km/hr in a 50zone and there is not a single thing i can do to stop my car being taken. What they don't realise is that we (youngins) are the people that will be helping them in the future when they are having hearties at ur local hospital and asking for a spare lung or something. What the **** is wrong with our world, people have been enjoying modified and sports cars for so many years now they think this will solve something new... One word: Revenue! Constable care is going to enjoy going to the police auctions and choosing out a nice sports car for half the price because it was repo'd off some kid that's worked night and day at KFC for the last 4 years. Why aren't the police out there stopping people from stealing my car, robbing servos and spray painting all over our city? Shit, it's no longer the theives im worried about having take my car now. Might have to buy the 2530 instead of a new car alarm - help keep the theives away. If i get done twice im buying a cbr 600.
