Instead of crushing their cars I would rather have the hoon be forced to watch his car being auctioned off at a redicuously low price (auction only available to people over 25) or perhaps some of the higer quality hoon cars could be used as under cover cop cars similar to the way that old cars are being recycled for speed cameras.
Being an ambo have dealt with similar cases but the most memorable was a cruiser ute full of teens rolling in a paddock whilst doing circle work. Not going very fast but when sitting in the tray you have a good chance of ending up squashed underneath the vehicle.
I remeber an accident a few years back where a car full of teens hit a bridge and one of the metal railings went straight through the car and through one of the passengers and making a horrible mess. This kid was well under 18 and his bogan family and friends made a roadside memorial for him - they all left cans of bundy rum!!
Nothing will be achieved until that particular mindset can be changed.
