Not Ranked
I thought the QLD Anti-Hoon legislation was brought in during 2002. So sounds like you just missed the fun.
It was in response to community complaints mainly in the Gold Coast.
1st offence, vehicle is confiscated for 48hrs.
2nd offence, vehicle is confiscated for up to 3 months.
3rd offence, vehicle is confiscated permanently.
It's just like license points here, the offences must be committed within 3 years. If you go 3 years without an offence, then you are back to square one.
Hooning is defined as either racing, burnouts etc.
Reading in the papers recently it seems we now have permanent vehicle confiscation for serial traffic offences and it's permanent confiscation on the 4the 4th offence. Not sure if that now applies to the hooning behaviour or not.
We've also had a big clamp down on illegal vehicle modifications on the Gold Coast as well.
