Now see there is the devil in the detail "RMS!!!!".....Common sense!!!

...the anti-hoon laws provide that if police have reasonable grounds for believing a DRIVER has committed a hoon-related offence.

Again the OP is in Question registered on a trailer and the authority is the EPA so if not VISIBILY registered they would have no legitimate access to the vehicle with it not driven or having committed an offence on private or public property..... the vehicle could also not be ticketed under the hoon umbrella!
Specific Hoon Offences=

Improper Use of Motor Vehicle – defined as “intentional loss of traction to
one or more wheels”
Careless Driving – with Improper Use
Manner Dangerous – with Improper Use
Engage in/Conduct Speed Trials Fail to Have Proper Control – with Improper Use
Undue Noise/Smoke – with Improper Use
Drive Whilst Disqualified/Suspended
Exceed Speed Limit – by 45Km/h or more; or travel at 145Km/h or more in a 110 Km/h zone ...

None of which can reasonably be performed..(alright by some maybe!!)..on the back of a trailer and hence be applied under anti-hoon!!!

If your being Defected under anti-hoon somebody else will be Towing your car home and not on your trailer!!!

So how does registerable or unregistered really apply if the extreme powers granted under anti-hoon can't be applied if an offence hasn't been committed? ...now there's a twist??...are we then back to the Common Law interpretations?

Sorry Treeve I'm bored!!
