[@andrewskinner8560]

S.W.W Matt heres what you don't know that these days. Vicroads have put implemented rules that anyone that have either, sight, hearing, sleep or mental health problems need to get clearance from a specialist. If those cops ordered any of those young men to undergo a psych evaluation, She will say they are mentally unfit to drive and until she says otherwise they can't drive. If they defy a doctor's order, its a $16,000 fine. I know because I must pass a medical every year to keep my licence.

A current affair is the worst, just one sided bullshit. They gather police, doctors, professional instructors, etc to defend these stupid road laws (they're paid of course) but on the other side invite a bunch of teenagers with IQ of about 10 combined, they couldn't even string a sentence together. obviously street racing or drifting on the road is very stupid, or cutting springs or running -10 camber or installing wheels that don't fit, etc and those that are stupid enough to to it should be pulled up. What the real motoring enthusiasts have a problem with is despite doing the right thing like obeying the speed limit, going to race tracks, keeping the car in excellent mechanical condition, etc you still get followed, pulled over and harassed for simply driving a modified car, defected for having things like a rollcage, engine modifications, suspension modifications, or wide wheels, etc. Even though the car is a miles safer and driver being miles more talented than 99% of the other cars on the road. Its about revenue, not safety.

[@TheKoentje1994]

I've also done 200kph, in the middle lane, while being overtaken by sportscars travelling at 250km/u+. Speed doesn't kill. Differences in speed kill. Speeding on the freeway doesn't harm anybody, speeding in residential areas is unacceptable though.

Generally speaking, they go out at 3am, they use industrial estates and they don't think they are invincible. Don't say they don't care. That would be to deny them of a sense of self preservation; given the time and place they undertake these acts, you cannot say most don't care about the public. To draw distinctions from drug use serves only to solidify what most people with a jurisprudence already think of you. Sure, the behaviors are irresponsible; yet they still aren't anywhere near as irresponsible as this farce of a journalistic standard. There is a place for emotion; but to exploit it in this way is repulsive, unprofessional and I think personally hides the lack of what could otherwise be a stronger case. Piss weak.

I could understand a Defect Station being there to check Track cars and see if their up to standard. However, If you are putting a track car through a normal defect procedure, that's a bit off. That said, A track car that is not fit for use on Public roads, should be brought in on a Tow truck or Trailer.

[@CodyEdgington-jp9ns]

Jon LeSouef I 100% agree that track cars should be on trailers. But for example, there was an event not long ago, roughly 70+ plus cars (both track and street cars) virtually every car got checked.

These car enthusiasts need to grow up and realise that state roads are not a playground, and shouldn't be used to emasculate themselves....

This interview seems like a joke... Unfair and inadequate perspectives. I have been a 'driving' enthusiast since I first got behind the wheel of my first car at 18yo. I love to drive and I have also made a lot of mistakes.. I'm only 27 but would love to have an 'older hoons' input on shows like the one shown. The people on this video really seem like children just pushing their boundaries or just being uneducated. I agree that if you do the crime then you need to pay the penalty.But how about a SMARTER PENALTY SYSTEM for offenders? The police/government love the money/income that they receive from speeders etc, why not put a rehabilitation system in place? If it's such a small % of people that 'don't learn' from their mistakes then it shouldn't take much! How about getting a few inputs from pro drivers? So many kids look up to them and their advice could help save lives. I look at dangerous driving like an addiction that needs to be understood,controlled and channeled by the one with the problem. There are also things like - respect, attitude, age, maturity,money, drugged/impaired while driving, etc, it all factors in to this discussion. I think the smart ones don't even say how fast they have been in a vehicle because they know it's unacceptable on public roads.

I am pretty defensive on this topic because they say hoons are at epidemic levels and complain about people doing burnouts and street racing but they don't do anything about it (eg, have events or make a place for people to go like once or twice a month).

[@r1yamahamini]

there arn't any interesting cars left on the road in NSW because its become a nany state. the police and public have been brainwashed into thinking a modified car is a threat to the public when in actual fact the car is improved (modified), by a person that cares more about looking after their car and therefore not crashing it. sports exhaust = loader = safer more power = irrelevant ( a prius can do 165km/h ) bigger brake = better crash avoidance better suspension = better crash avoidance

[@IEVLV8]

i agree, but only if those mods have been done legally and the car isn't so low that you can drive over a Credit Card without scraping like some idiots that lower cars are like

[@SamnissArandeen]

Ross McGlashan Agreed. The ADR doesn't allow very much "wiggle room" so to say for a user to modify the car to his needs.

[@blakevella2762]

Where I'm from, we don't have a drag strip, we don't have a burnout pad, we don't have a race track, we have no where legal to do it. If we didn't have to drive 600km to go do a skid we wouldn't do it on public roads

[@anthonysegovia8364]

Here for a good time not a long time

[@Maddd64]

well how about this, get the government to fund a track and strip, free entry and have them local, not everyone can afford to drive for 1 or 2 hours for a monthly event and pay the $50 odd dollar fee to entrée, make it cost effective and also local, and then you will see results in less noon activity on the streets.

[@thetalkingelement]

Maybe a start in combating young "hoon" drivers, should be limiting them to naturally aspirated four cylinder motors with no modifications whatsoever. For the time of their probation period, people need to understand and respect cars before they can get a high powered car. But politicians are the smart ones.

[@AngusOutram]

Politicians Smart? They are no different from the rest of us. Taking freedom of choice of vehicle away from people? You enjoy living in a "free" country yes? As you said, people need to understand and respect cars, the only way to get people to do this is by "teaching* them, Common sense would dictate that "Education" is the best way of tackling this issue, but that costs money so the Government won't do it. Also please don't be blind sighted. ACA has picked the dumbest "hoons" they could find to represent themselves while they got police which specialise in traffic offenses especially hooning cases. it's not a fair argument and is segment was made to make hoons look like idiots, you need to understand that before you watch it.

[@thetalkingelement]

I was being very sarcastic when I said politicians were smart. It's one thing to teach kids advanced driving education, but once they get it then get a high powered car most if not all would drive around the streets thinking their ken block or something. Don't get me wrong I love powerful cars and I had a rotary rx 3, 13b brappa. I just think kids should be restricted to 4 cyl nat asp no mods at all, for the time of probation, enforcing it would be the hard part.

[@ParallaxFPV]

Dinky Di I'd have to agree with what you're saying here. An inexperienced driver behind the wheel of 300hp and a shitload of torque is a dangerous prospect. It's far too easy for them to lose control. I personally believe it's important to learn the fundamentals of car control before getting into something with a lot of power. Wouldn't be any harder than enforcing drink driving. If you're caught driving a modified vehicle and/or it has more than 4 cylinders, the vehicle is seized and you get demerits/a ticket. It's not a good idea for young people with little experience to be behind the wheel of something they can't control.

[@AngusOutram]

Dinky-Di that's legit? The point of the education is to make them realize they are not Ken Block and how to respect the car. Yes in Australia we have a lot of dumb people and laws have to be made for the lowest common denominator but the fact you're wanting to ban P-platers from V6's and diesels is actually so stupid, Like i actually don't think you have a brain right now. How is a P-plater meant to tow a boat? most commercial vehicles a V6 so goodbye jobs for young people. you are actually just so dumb i don't understand you.

[@thetalkingelement]

Yeah man you too fast for me. angusis2fast4u

[@jacksonwelch9870]

in case you don't know, going to tracks is expensive and for these guys they're most likely tradesmen, an average first year mechanic earns $300 a week, most of your income is gone in 2 hours if you go to a track but going in backstreets is dumb, going in rush hour traffic is dumb going late at night on a open highway is not a danger in any way ( assuming you don't do stupid speeds like other guys in this clip )

[@Darndiddlyarn]

I got nailed for doing 96 in a 90 zone in my house bus. Yet never got done for going to work and back at 270kph.

[@Nikko3001]

What hoons don't understand is cars are large metal object hurtling along at unnatural speeds (according to science). Science has gotten cars to be safer at these speeds. I mean, put 60 km/h into perspective. If I put one of those hoons in a shopping trolley and launched it at even 40 km/h, they wish they didn't even make a glancing hit to anything stationary. yes, cars have safety aspects in place, but how far will that take us? Acceleration has the same theory.

[@trenchcoatkendo]

This isn't a debate it's a one sided conversation with an agenda.

[@kalabas1101]

Only one thing There are more non car guys dead because of an accident than car guys

[@tsqueeks4981]

Make more places for us to do this at, yes I agree keep it off the streets, but if there were more places for us " Hoons " to do a skid, have a race, do some drifting it would keep it off the streets. Our local track got closed down cause of the " Noise " the closet house is over 1k away! So all the action was back on the streets.

[@leaithmccue3092]

Police logic: Ey boys! Hes got a set of red rocker covers. Hes a hoon! BAHAHAHHAHA

[@heathdoesbeca]

I’m all for skids but there’s a place and time absolutely.....

[@muaminhugsy4964]

just my POV; massive amounts of car lovers spare time reckless (yes that too...) and barely places to go to. if you live in sydney for example, some of the only places to go to (if you have short patience span and Google briefly for 4 or 5 hours) are the drift mob meets or the eastern creek drags. (try to cram all the sydney enthusiasts that fall under that description into two or even 10 meets a month) thats just an example, and well...speed is addictive, so the im-patient will end up either expressing anger or something or the other or just hoon for the fun of it thinking they won't cause a statistic and end up doing so :/ but I mean, it's like forcing them into a box and then publicising them when they try to break out IMO I may be wrong or I may be right but still...something needs to be fun...to many are lost to idiots. And to be honest doing over 150 or 200 or whatnot on a public road, let alone street, is stupid nonetheless, and because of people like that, stats are caused and a huge number of car lovers are labelled hoons in the public opinion because of such actions and such programs focusing on what they did instead of what they caused (repetitive videos of idiots instead of extended interviews with people and debates)...but that's my opinion.

[@rudytorrez8247]

it's completely safe if the idiots knew what they were doing and if they had a decent enough vehicle with proper safety

[@NTSwanie123]

This is why I love SCCA. I have some where to fuck about and push the car through it's paces. Sucks for the guys down under that don't have this.

[@anybudz]

2:12 thats a lie, deep down... proud as fuck about that

[@AuSSiEJaZzA]

Ive smoked pot since i was 15, I'm now 27. I hold a full time job and a full drivers license with no criminal or driving record. Not one speeding ticket ever. *touches wood* lol. That is not to say I don't speed and i don't drive while smashed out of my brain, I do... All the time. People can take drugs and speed and still function as any other person in society. Drink driving however is another story, I don't do that lol.

[@Pzest_Titan]

[@Pq338sniper]

How can I get into contact with that Bret kid? I need to find out the cam specs of his ls1 haha

[@jezzerdabomb]

If they really want to lower the idiots make the advanced driving course mandatory to getting a license. In the advanced driving course they teach you what it is like to lose control at speed. This will not only make people more aware but it may also scare a few people straight.

[@subarus6]

196km/h and his a criminal? That's cute. Thousands of people do that speed everyday on the autobahn

[@someusernamedtuber]

These are not car enthusiasts these are hoons. That said even most hoons are smarter then them.

[@DcEvoIX]

I'd call them young jerk offs or stupid speeders. I drift and by that term I consider myself a hoon, but my speeding might be 50mph in a 25, I'm not a kid anymore I don't get satisfaction out of seeing how fast my car can go on the highway when I can go to the drag strip and make as many passes as I want for $15. I might drift in a parking lot or occasionally on the street but not if there is people around and it's usually in industrial sections on a Sunday when no one is around or working

[@Nikko3001]

"shit" rules to keep you and everybody else safe.

[@bravelittleabacus]

Drifting is better than fucking crashing your cheap Honda Civic into a Vauxhall.

[@alexdunman6887]

People who have never speed yet criticise those that speed is like a virgin giving lessons on how to have sex.

[@HELPMEIDUNNOHOWTOUSE]

1:20 I love how the two guys are leaning in smiling at the videos lol!

[@Mrstubbsthezombie]

What people don't understand is we know it's a risk! If I want to do a burnout I will! If I want to drift I will! I don't do that shit in towns or anything... I find a secluded road and let my talent shine... I'm not paying arse tonnes of money to go to a track! I don't have a place to let it all out.

[@brianashman1642]

The Psychologist is certainly repeating things all mums would say "you think you're invincible" Its not that they think they are invincible - its the thrill of knowing you are risking your life, facing ones own mortality - but here is were she is right on the money - they don't stop to think of the cost. If you want to risk yourself - they will say were is the harm??? You could show them 100 video clips and that small handful just smile at the cool burnouts. But the mother who lost her son and spoke with such honesty about her own sons offending - wow...... spoke volumes to me.

[@Nikko3001]

As I said, play it smart. Tracks aren't expensive to go to. You just go to the wrong one. So if they are on 300 dollars a week, it'll cost them more in speeding fines and hospital fines rather than say 50 dollars going to a track day. Anything outside a track is dumb. fact.
