good to see fellas
i have been trying to get other forums to sign the ledger as well so that the numbers will pick up! its time the government realised that not everyone who owns a modified car is a hoon, and that modified car owners have rights to!!

i agree,
sadley, they want to be seen to the voters to be trying to do something.
when the fact is there solutions DONT WORK

more camera, more penaities. its just antaginising the situation and giving us more of a reason to run,
more often then not, in a car with much more power then the boys in blue.

Reasonably certain that for a petition to be valid it would need the residential addresses of the undersigned.

I would also think it would need an actual signature as well.

Good luck to the petition, but just a name on a list is as bad as the emails that do the rounds.

I can see the headlines now.. '10,000 hoons sign petition'
I signed it.. I do get the point of the hoon laws - street racing and burnouts are / should be illegal. Its the people who like to drive modified cars and responably use them, be it at the track, 1/4 mile or wherever who suffer because of these fools..

andrew

ps. I think its ironic its on a commodore website, when 95% of the clips of hoons in WA on the news are commodores.
