Chris Davey Forums Junkie Location: sunny coast, qld Registered: October 2002	Re: Hoons ACA Tue, 19 April 2005 08:59 Wazaaaa wrote on Tue, 19 April 2005 18:13 Reading through all of this has made me realise that when your young all you want to do is get there in a hurry, or show off etc, when your older all you want to do is get there - ie avoid deadshits doing circle work in the middle of an intersection. I'm not suggesting for one second that every young driver is a hoon or speeds - god know there are plenty of 30+, 40+, 50+ drivers who have never grown up when it comes to driving a car. When I got my licence at 17 and the instructor told me that it takes 8 years to be a competent driver I thought he was full of shit - on reflection, at age 29 he was right. Now I have a far greater respect for other road users. Where is all this coming from.... a few years back I was driving behind my best mate on the way into the city and, dare I say it, a P plate driver in a big hurry decided to overtake but misjudged the oncoming traffic and had to cut in on my mate driving the car in front, their cars clipped and my mate ended up slamming into the back of a parked semi on the side of the road. He didn’t have a chance. I threw out the anchors and pulled up - ran back to see my mate - he was a mess. I looked back to see that the other driver had pulled up as had about 10 other cars. In a blind fury I ran up to the other car, put my boot through the drivers window and dragged him out in a headlock back to see what had happened. The sight of Ben with half his face missing and skull busted open made him throw up and then start crying like a baby. All I wanted to do is kick the shit out of him but the bystanders kept us apart. We buried my mate 4 days later. Apparently this driver had dangerously overtaken several other cars before he got to us which was reported in court, where he was charged for reckless driving causing death. I got a caution from the police for my action. All I can say is, slow the fuck down. SERIOUSLY. You wont get home any faster - unlike Ben, who never made it home. That's terrible mate. I can definitely see your point. I think the problem is there is so much ambiguity in the word "hoon". Some people would say that the fella who crashed into Wazaaa's mate was a hoon, but I think I would just say he is shit driver full stop. I had the same thing happen to me on the way home today. I was doing 105 in a 100 zone (which should probably be 80 zone) and this guy who looked about 18 years old overtakes me in his shitty hyandai. As he went past me I gave him a death stare that sort of said "what the F8*%K are you doing?" I mean it was so pointless as there were about 15 cars in front of me doing 80 anyway Point is this dude isn't a hoon he is just a dickhead. A hoon to me is burnouts, street racing, drifting in stupid places like busy road, residential areas etc. I personally can't see the point in doing burnouts anyway unless you are just wanting to heat up your tyres to race. And this doesn't do much for street tyres anyway IMO Also, on the program they talk about hooning and then show nice looking cars parked on the side of the road??? In fact, my old soarer was used as hoon footage for the local channel 7 for about 6 months until I finally rang them up and told them not to use it. I was just parked, standing next to my car, talking on my phone. That made me a hoon I am sick of this subject, I don't think we can do shit. Live and let live. http://aca.ninemsn.com.au/feedback/feedback_form.a sp where to put your feedback. [Updated on: Tue, 19 April 2005 09:03] [Report message to a moderator]
