Have you ever been dobbed into the hoon hotline?

by **Hybrid34** » February 16th, 2009, 6:22 pm

Neighbors have threatened me with a letter saying to stop the "aggressive" driving, which i don't in my street as its to small (closely parked cars) I think the loudness of the exhaust makes out that im going faster than i am..
Just want to know if anyone has been dobbed into the hoon hotline and what happens?

That's pretty tight.

Some lady up my street was gunna call the cops because she thought compressor surge was burnouts.

by **holmsy** » February 16th, 2009, 6:37 pm

pretty sure without pictures or some form of proof they cant do much.
and even then if all they have is you putting the boot in with no wheel spin then ya got no problem really.

i hate people that think if the car is loud you are speeding.
couple years ago i put the boot into my dads standard ba xr6 up to 40 in a 50 zone. and some lady like 100 meters down the road abused me as i went past.

by **ed4ltr** » February 16th, 2009, 6:42 pm

I've been threatend in a mates street an had some woman tell my mates mum she called the hoon hotline on me..nothing ever happened..

i get the abuse for doin bout 40 down the streets near my place cos the cars loud, i love it

by **mooseman** » February 16th, 2009, 6:47 pm

I was dobbed in by a security guard at a new estate. The cops came knocking a few hours later and he told them that me and my mates pointed a gun at him and were doing burnouts. It was half true but we wouldn't know where to get a gun. The cops just told us to keep it down and if they have to come back again they will go over the cars and give canarys and or other fines.

my last car i had on my L's was a vp commodore wif a spool an 4.11s an 1 nite went crazy in the wet.. 3 weeks later i had police knock on my door sayin i was dobbed into crime stoppers lol an tried givin me a 6 month bond but had no proof.. haha

by **Gozza** » February 17th, 2009, 6:55 am

I had a guy just last week try and roadblock the street with his body. i made some boost down a street with a park..probably only got to 50. He came running out with his arms flailing saying there's kids around. I told him to **** off and get them off the street haha

by **Bipolar** » February 17th, 2009, 8:48 am

Right.

I had an old dude walking up a footpath when I was driving up the hill in second going 60 (in a 60 zone) turn around half bent and wave both arms up and down like he was krumping telling me to slow down. I laughed my arse off all the way home. Wish I had've got it on video.

by **ClassicAU** » February 17th, 2009, 11:23 am

lol, I actually have a letter from the hoon hotline, should frame it! Says some bull spit about my details are on record and all that, but they have 'decided not to take any further action' just cos my area is full of old farts! I doubt they can do anything without hard evidence anyway. Pfft to hoon hotline!

by **EdFairmontGhia** » February 17th, 2009, 7:55 pm

Start work even earlier in the morning and come home late at night, so they are inside and can't see shit, but will hear the noise... organise a mini meet get lots of loud eseries to rock up into your street... problem solved...

by **Frost** » February 17th, 2009, 8:43 pm

If you get dobbed in and they get your plates, you get a "Warning Letter" lol

by **t1MMy** » February 17th, 2009, 8:50 pm

Dob in a mobile speed camera car. All you need is a rego.

Those ppl are the lowest scum out there.

Lol they are contractors for a company called Serco Sedxo. They have no choice, its the governments fault they are there.

by **Commando** » February 17th, 2009, 9:44 pm

They have a choice, they can choose not to take that avenue of employment. I'd pick centrelink over being a camera operator.

by **Frost** » February 17th, 2009, 9:45 pm

But Dave they do the same as centrelink dole bludgers but get paid danger money lol.

They could chose to do a real job, instead of sitting on their f**** lazy ass on the side of a road all day.

by **CaRtZ** » February 19th, 2009, 6:57 pm

i have been seen doing a burnout out of a gokart track and the guy from accross the road followed me though the industiral estate which i wasnt driving very conservitavley and was testing out the tickford head

"u've been doing burnouts" "haha no" "yes u've been seen" what by the guy in the ute speeding to catch up to me and talking on his mobile?" more crap for 10mins or so "if i go on the roads u have been on and see skid marks im gunna come and impound ur car, here's a $145 fine" "ok fine, goodluck" never heard from him again

by **fastea** » April 22nd, 2009, 7:27 pm

Hoon hotline is flawed.

You can log onto the crime stoppers, dob in a "hoon" anon. Even attached pictures and all... That are digitally manipulated.

Cops will turn up on your doorstep 2 days later, with Please explain....

Happened Twice now.. Not to happy

by **Barnsy** » April 23rd, 2009, 9:01 am

I got dobbed in, for "anti-social behaviour" aka hooning legally,

To the people that dobbed me in........It is my prerogative to travel at 50km/h in first gear down a crowded street, and to accelerate as fast as I can to the speed limit, so people should mind their own fucken business and get over it!

by **BROCKYB8** » April 23rd, 2009, 12:17 pm

Well i got dobbed in for driving my brock. The only problem is the two times i have been dobbed in i have not had parts in the car to drive it ,

by **ELXR_96** » April 23rd, 2009, 10:38 pm

My mate had this Ea LTD and we did these half assed donuts on a dirt road and took off this guy came running out with a rake and swang the bloody thing at us almost collecting the mirror screaming his head off and reported us and we just got a letter a few weeks later.. I took my EL to that same corner again a few months back and got the massive guy from a different house tried to make me get out then reversed trying to cut me off in his shitty VT but he had no chance lol little country towns are full of psychos

by **Michael (HYPOEB)** » April 23rd, 2009, 10:44 pm

naa but i no lots of ppl that hav had there car taken off them lmao.

one mate was on the brake and the cops drove right up to the back of him and waited till he finished the burnout lol

by **ELXR_96** » April 24th, 2009, 11:32 am

i got my ea impounded and cost me $545 to get out and a $400 fine in court. I sold it not long after for $350 lol

by **thebeast.** » April 28th, 2009, 11:14 am

my mate kept spinning the wheels at a T-intersection near his house... some old people called the cops. about 30 min later a cop called and asked if this was hes rego etc and told him to stop. that was it and apparently the cop was nice about it all lol

by **t1MMy** » April 28th, 2009, 1:05 pm

You're kidding, right?

by **Steady** » April 28th, 2009, 2:17 pm

Kidding about which part, cause I thought the wheel spinning bit was far fetched as well.

by **t1MMy** » April 28th, 2009, 2:21 pm

About the part where the cop sat down at his desk, went thru the database system, looked up a rego, matched that against a phone number, called the guy to ask if he had the right number, and then only gave him a warning to cut it out based in someones word.

by **Steady** » April 28th, 2009, 2:32 pm

Small town?
Excellent work ethic coupled with a sense of social responsibility to actually perform his duties to the best of his ability?
'thebeast.' is talking shit?
Nobody cares?
???
Profit?

by **thebeast.** » April 28th, 2009, 3:14 pm

the person who made the complaint took down his number plate and a discription of his car and called the cops.. it would only take a few seconds to look for his plates and get his phone number...

by **t1MMy** » April 28th, 2009, 3:47 pm

You're right, it would only take a few seconds to look it up. If they were allowed to do so....

by **Gozza** » April 28th, 2009, 3:59 pm

why wouldn't they be allowed to do so?

by **t1MMy** » April 28th, 2009, 4:15 pm

Not sure how it operates up in QLD, but down here in Vic the police can't just rifle through the LEAP system to gain personal information, unless they have a valid reason ie; pulling someone over for a licence check. There are other reasons, but that's just 1 example.

Reason being is something happend years back where a police officer went through someones files in the system and not long after the person whos info was searched through was found either injured or dead, can't remember the outcome. Was a shear coincidence that the officer was was in that persons files before hand, but you can imagine how much shit hit the fan when they fond this out.

Also stops police getting revenge on people who may of "upset" them at one stage or another. Not all police would do that, but it stops the shit anyway.

by **Steady** » April 28th, 2009, 4:27 pm

So they can rifle through LEAP and bring up a relatives criminal charges then use those charges to level accusations against someone driving said relatives car, but can't use LEAP to investigate a complaint against someone made by a member of the public?

by **Gozza** » April 28th, 2009, 4:35 pm

Or gather number plates off the interweb .

by **t1MMy** » April 28th, 2009, 4:39 pm

No, they can't. There's no valid reason to do so.

Steady wrote:can't use LEAP to investigate a complaint against someone made by a member of the public?

Evidence of the car breaking the law?

Gozza wrote:Or gather number plates off the interweb .

Here's how the people are getting caught on youtube doing burnout, it's enough evidence to log onto LEAP.

by **Parfrey** » April 28th, 2009, 4:46 pm

so why can the cops come to your house if they suspect you of doing something illegal in your car?? how would they get your addres if they couldn't look it up? :roll:
