Thursday night. After a long day at work (still in my office clothes).

Just driving my 10 yr old to her dance class. My wife was also in the car. Just going through our normal routine. All of a sudden a siren and flashing blue from behind. I pull over. Two cops come out. One Aussie, one of Asian background. Pull out my license. I wind down my window and ask the young Aussie officer "What have I done wrong officer?" The officer hesitates a bit (maybe surprised that it wasn't the kind of person he expected driving the "hotted up" nissan turbo coupe) and smilingly says "Oh it's nothing sir just a random breath test-could you pop up the bonnet for me please".

Breath test clear.

Asian cop inspects the engine bay. Clear. They go to the side of the car and check the clearance between the tyre and fender. Clear. One cop goes behind the car while the other asks me to rev the engine up to 4,000 rpm (I've got a full 3.5" HKS system with a cannon tip). Clear! Asian dude is not satisfied. He begins to quizz me about the blockout window beside the driver's door. I said "what!". Aussie officer pulls him away and says to me "have a good night sir, you can go". They speed off into the night in their XR6 cop car slightly breaking traction.

My time wasted. Their time unwisely spent. Great!

The interesting thing about this, is how are 20 year old drivers THAT different to drivers your age (assume 30's) ?

You cant generalise all skyline drivers into the same category. You also shouldnt generalise all 20 year old drivers as 'hoons'

Toby doesn't generalise that all younger drivers are hoons, although he might get that impression from hanging around me too much

It is a shame that skylines and import drivers are targeted in particular, and what was meant by the post is that not all drivers of these vehicles are hoons but normal citizens going about there own business and the police wasting their and our time with frivolous attempts at revenue raising.

Sure

I wasnt saying anything about Toby - I was trying to relate it more to how society (and the police) generalise skyline drivers. I agree that a lot of people hoon around in skyline, but just because I own one, doesnt mean I do
