The Number Is Up For Hoon Driving
Crime Stoppers and Victoria Police have taken their partnership to a new level with the program now offering its number and website to the community as a way to provide information on Hoon driving.
Since July 1, 2006 more than 2000 cars have ben seized by police using the new Hoon legislation. This legislation and the subsequent police action reflects the community's concern with unlawful and dangerous driving behaviour.
Crime Stoppers now offers the community a centralised number and its website (Share Crime Information page) to report information about Hoon driving behaviour. This may include information on drag racing, individuals who always drive at excessive speeds or do burn-outs in your streets as examples. For more information on what constitutes Hoon driving, refer to the legislation.
Crime Stoppers can offer you a way to have your information acted upon after an incident or used as intelligence to target a repeat Hoon driver. Road safety is your right and Crime Stoppers will play its part in contributing to the safety of all Victorians on our roads.
Further information will be posted on this website as the project to curb Hoon driving develops.
***REMEMBER THAT ANY INCIDENT YOU WITNESS WHICH REQUIRES IMMEDIATE POLICE ACTION OR INTERVENTION SHOULD BE REPORTED TO 000 IN THE FIRST INSTANCE***
