New Tassy Vehicle Impounding Laws

Well, looks like they have impounded about 9 cars in Hobart since the new laws came in last week. RX7, and a standard pulsating pulsar being the latest that i've seen in the lock up down here. I talked to one of the Garage cops and said with a hint of sarcasm " geez, that pulsar must have been doing a big burn out to get impounded", to which he replied, dangerous driving.
Apparently they can impound your car for dangerous driving, loss of traction and also a too loud stereo. First time it's 2 days, Second time it's 2 or 3 months (I can't remember) and then on the third time it goes to Auction, where you have the honourable chance of buying your car back.
I reckon it's pretty fucked. I haven't been booked in a long time but I can see some younger dudes getting stripped of their cars within a year!
Are these laws the same roughly as the NSW ones? Anyone had their car impounded?
I noticed that they put a big sticker over each opening to the car, (boot, doors, and even bonnet), complete with owner's name and time of offence etc. I guess it's because the vehicle isn't a crime scene, so it stops people getting into the car before you pick it back up ( If you do!)
Cheers to the police! not
