Fix the hoons!
I saw this article on the Herald Sun about what US cops are doing to fix their hoon problems. They make the hoon drivers watch their cars being crashed.
Personally, I’ll go several steps further.
1. Crashed their cars And take away their drivers licences.
2. When they re-apply for new drivers’ licences, they need to buy special hoon plates:
HL for Hoon on Learners, and
HP for Hoon on P’s. Cost to be 10 times the cost of a normal licence.
3. Maximum engine capability is 500cc or the size of a scooter for at least 5 years.
4. Maximum speed on any car they drive is 60 km per hour and vehicle must carry a sign stating convicted hoon driver behind wheels for an additional 10 years.
5. Driver licence must state that the person is a convicted hoon driver and number of people killed and injured.
Nothing short of a permanent reminder for the rest of their lives.
Come to think about it, the above should also be applied to drivers convicted of drink driving or driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs.

10 bucks say our ‘lil squirt got her feelings hurt by a hoon? Or got into a fender bender…with a hoon? Or something…with a hoon?
Squirt, what have I told you about falling for these kinda boys? It always ends ugly.
:)
Sorry Adrock! You just lost $10! Never had any feelings for hoons, was never hurt by one and come to think about it, yet to encounter one.
I’ve seen some of them, mis-behaving in the carparks of shopping malls, on the streets doing burnouts.
On those days, I want to be William Foster (by Michael Douglas) in the movie Falling Down where he used a missile launcher to clear the road.
Using a missile launcher to clear the road? Now THAT is a very hoon-like behaviour. Haha.
Iiii have feelings for hoons. Negative feelings. Not the fun kind.
Try driving anywhere near Frankston, any time of the day, at the actual speed limit. It can be very frustrating.
I’m thinking of getting a bumper sticker: “Will slow down for small children and tailgaters.”
(In consideration that this post might be monitored for “keywords”, I have obfuscated potential “keywords” with the help of a dictionary.)
I totally agree with you. Sometimes I feel like it is almost necessary to place a “projectile (one that is formerly usually spherical, filled with a bursting charge and exploded by means of a fuze, by impact, or otherwise, now generally designed to be dropped from an aircraft)”, in their path.
Though, this might be a little too alike “the use of violence and threats to intimidate or coerce, (esp. for political purposes)”. How about accidentally leaving huge thumbtacks in their path instead. Heee heee.
aren’t we glad squirt doesn’t make the law ;-)
sure hoons are annoying, but these “proposals” are absurd :P
