The magistrate was right, the Falcon simply couldn't catch the Lambo. A FG F6 or new GT still wouldn't cut the mustard against a supercar. Simple.

The police got it wrong and this hoon law is flawed.
Kind of like Deja Vu when they phased out the V8's back in 2000.

But I beleive the ability to impound someone's car still needs to be there, just that it should be a power exercised by the courts, not the Police. At the moment, the Police are judge jury and executioner, guilty until proven innocent, which is completely inappropriate.

Not to mention the hoon laws in their various forms around the country could be unconstitutional the way they are composed.
