Hoon driver caught

A hoon driver has been caught in Kilsyth South.

While on patrol on Saturday 13 November Croydon Divisional Tasking Unit members in an unmarked police vehicle observed a 20-year-old male probationary driver commit an intentional loss of traction offence in front of them on Colchester Road in Kilsyth South.

His vehicle was immediately impounded for 30 days at a cost of $1,555.

He will be be charged on summons with a number of offences including: Careless driving, improper use of motor vehicle, cause undue noise/smoke, probationary licence holder drive prohibited vehicle.

As this is not the first time the man has had his vehicle impounded for similar offending, it is likely that it will be forfeited.
