Teen arrested for hoon behaviour

Teen arrested for hoon behaviour: "A cloud of dust raised by his activities alerted police, who reported him, who impounded his Holden Commodore sedan for 48 hours."

Pays to advertise, heh? Then you win all the prizes. We are increasingly frustrated by young drivers because the fallout from their insane behaviour is striking closer and clser to home. They are killing people we know. Young, vibrant people are dying as a result of stupid driving practices. The heroics end in death of friends, friends of friends, sons of friends, daughters ... More and more of us are being affected. They think speeding does not kill. They think drink driving is not a problem. They think that , oh well, I can apply the brakes faster than that guy. They do not understand physics, probability and chance and they are not driven by any common sense on the inside. After, they understand. We have got to change the thinking. Modifying the behaviour is one thing, it's the total lack of understanding about what can and does happen which is if greatest concern...because it doesn't apply to them.
