The State Governments plan to crush hoons' cars after third offence.

Mr Baillieu said forfeiture of a car would not occur if the “registered operator or owner of a vehicle can prove the offence was committed without their knowledge or consent".

Impounding would not occur in cases of stolen or hired vehicles either.

I see a loophole here. Mates swapping cars and going separate ways claiming they don't know what the other is up to...? How can it be proven otherwise? Onus is on the cops as always. How hard to they have to make it to do their job...

On another note about baiting by unmarked cop cars: if you are silly enough not to be able to spot an unmarked car then you deserve everything you get. No sympathy from me ;)
