hoon laws victoria

Victoria's hoon laws are as strict as a bouncer at a disco full of revheads. They target antisocial driving behaviour such as burnouts, street racing, and doughnuts. Offenders can face hefty fines, licence suspensions, and even vehicle impoundment for up to 48 hours on first offences, escalating to 3 months or more for repeat performances. The laws are designed to keep the streets safe from those who think their car is a stunt prop rather than transport.

Common penalties include:

• Fines up to $2,500
• Licence suspension up to 12 months
• Vehicle impoundment
