Crush it?

DO you really think (not withstanding his expired licence) that a burnout warrants someones personal possession to be destroyed?

I cannot believe the thought process of some people

Actually, I think morons who do burnouts should be locked away for attempted murder.

Why? .. there are 8-10 competitions around Australia specifically for burnouts, .. where you can win between $10000-$50000 for being the winner. …. while skids arent my thing, thats more money and crowd viewing pleasure (eg at the summernats) than any of the motorpsort events I enter and compete it.

PS what the fuck makes you think a burnout is “attempted murder” ….. so if you were in the wet, and had a sustained loss of traction taking off from a set of lights, … that makes you an attempted murderer too?

You don’t seem you understand the difference between a burnout competition and driving down a public road.

You also don’t seem to understand the difference between legal and illegal.

You don’t get insurance incase some bell end may be doing a burnout and hit your car.
You don’t seem to understand insurance.

Yes. – Why? … Drink drivers dont have cars crushed, people exceeding the speed limit by 45kph and over dont have their possessions taken from them and crushed?

I know, right?

… how would you like it if you broke some law, and the crown came and took your stuff and crushed it?

I wouldn’t like it. Isn’t that the point? If people want to do brain dead activities like burnouts (each to their own – I don’t have a problem with it IF it’s legal), they can go to comps (as you’ve mentioned). Don’t do it on the streets.

So what’s the problem? If you’re that desperate to do a burnout and impress your friends, do it somewhere that isn’t a public road and you won’t have to worry about the police raining on your parade.

I’m all for the crushing. He was above the limit AND his license was already suspended, therefore it’s obviously not the first time he’s tried it. On top of that, he attempted to flee… To me, that just screams that he’s unfit to drive responsibly.

If you can’t do the time, don’t do the crime.

… how would you like it if you broke some law, and the crown came and took your stuff and crushed it?

I try really hard not to break laws. If I do, I should pay the price agreed by society and reflected in legislation. I mean, I’m pretty sure if I broke the law with a weapon, or a computer, or a crowbar, they wouldn’t be waiting for me when I got out.

Or are you suggesting that asking criminals “how would you like it?” is a rational basis for a justice system? “Actually, that would make me sad.” “Oh, well we won’t do it, then. Carry on.”

Next time the Police catch someone stealing, let’s crush their hands.

Yes, that’s exactly the same thing.

Personally, I think a burnout (considered as an isolated concept, without considering location, nearby people etc) is treated in a completely disproportionate way to many other things which are dangerous while driving. Compare the points/fine for running a red light or driving an un-roadworthy vehicle.

On the other hand, driving while drunk and unlicensed, in combination, should be a “very serious thing™”, and I really think things like vehicle crushing might actually make people like this think twice about going for what was probably an unnecessary, spur of the moment, joy ride.

That’s why we don’t break the law by doing burnouts while drunk and without a licence to drive any way. If I wanted to do burnouts, I would do it where its legal to do so like Summernats or other organized competitions around the country.

You’re acting like a burnout is like burning people at the stake, … its not like he was belting through a school zone at 180kph (which wouldn’t get your car crushed)

One guy chucking hoops isnt going to make the world implode ffs. …. I dont have kids, but if he crashed into my car, thats why I have insurance.

Well, he’s a 20 year old tosser. And he was drunk. While he was drunk he engaged in dangerous behavior on the road. While doing this dangerous drunken young tosser stuff, he was also unlicensed, and hence he was uninsured so that if he injured a third party it’s their tuff shit.

I don’t want dangerous drunken young unlicenced tossers with no self control on the road with me. Such people are a threat to me and my wife and my kids, and all the other decent normal people in Canberra. So if the state chose to impound and destroy his vehicle, I’d be in the enormous crowd with CGN cheering them on.

And if you think the property rights of arsehats like this take precedence over the wellbeing of the rest of the community, then I reckon you should spend a long time reflecting on how you’d feel if that bloke had lost control of his vehicle and, for example, crashed into you and killed your baby son while doing his stupid senseless bloody burnout.
