i think that the biggest problem will come from the definition of hooning. A display of acceleration is included under the rules, so if i was accelerating a decent rate up to the speed limit it can be included as hooning. If i did this in an immaculate HO, a piece of motoring history is lost, as well as a heap of dollars.
The laws are fairly misguided given that the biggest dropkicks who do massive skids in the middle of the night will just buy junkers, so it does not matter if they are crushed. This also means that they will be driving less roadworthy vehicles the rest of the time - why would they bother to make them safe?
The laws are also unbalanced in that if you drink and drive, or use drugs and drive, or speed there is no equivalent punishment.
