Do we need a hotline for dobbing in hoon drivers?

Postby LTDHO » March 20th, 2008, 6:53 am

For anyone who wants to have their vote and stand for your rights.

So many people whinge about the hoon hotline, etc. So here is your chance.

In todays Herald Sun the question is on whether there should be a hoon line.

Call these to vote:

Yes - 1900956434
No - 1900956435


If you are against this form of 'dobbing' that much, then have your say.

NB: The pick in the paper of the XP doing a skid infront of the cop car is priceless. Love it. (Although staged)

51% say no now.

I believe if you are a real menace the police will know about your behavior already, i guess they are just trying to catch people in the act with using the hotline

Well we could just dob in every old person you see.
But I bet the caller will need to provide their full details. To prevent dodgy calls.

The word "un-australian" gets bandied around alot these days, way too much IMO, but I honestly believe that dobbing cnts in is fcken un-australian.
It can't mean shit anyway, what dumb fck that uses this hoon hotline is gonna be willing to go to court over it?
If you get dobbed in, just deny it, if it keeps going, get a lawyer, take it to court.
It won't go any further unless the person who dobbed you in is willing to take time off work/bingo/pokies to come in and be a witness.

We've become a dob-in society, that wont change. Too many people take delight in causing shit for others.
What gets me is the confiscation and possible crushing of a persons car. Surely thats theft and destruction of private property!
Any lawyers wanna take our side on that?
