Pressure on hoons is heating up with the introduction of a state-wide Hoon Hotline.

The ‘dob in hoon’ hotline was launched recently at Federation Square in Melbourne by Crimestoppers, the Transport Accident Commission (TAC) and Victoria Police.

Statewide Traffic Advisor Superintendent Kevin Casey said members of the public are able to phone in and provide police with information that can help get dangerous drivers off the road.

He encourages Victorians to ‘dob-in’ drivers who engage in street racing, burn outs, fish tailing and other dangerous hoon activity.

"This campaign is designed to take hoon cars and drivers off the road," Supt Casey said.

"The information provided by the public via the Hoon Hotline will allow police to strategically target areas where we know hoon offences are occurring.

"Ultimately, it is about making our roads safer and reducing road trauma, and we can do this by immediately taking a vehicle from a dangerous driver."

Supt Casey said police impounded several cars for hoon behaviour over the recent ANZAC day long weekend.

"Police confiscated the Holden Commodore of a Horsham P-plater in the early hours of the Sunday morning," he said.

"The driver was caught traveling in excess of 190 kilometres per hour in a 100kph zone.

"He is facing various charges, including drink-driving."

A 28-year-old Officer man’s car was also impounded after an incident near Narre Warren on the Sunday evening.

"Dandenong Regional Traffic Tasking Unit (RTTU) members intercepted a man driving in excess of 150kph in a 100kph zone on the Monash Freeway," Supt Casey said.

"The driver attempted to avoid police, overtaking several vehicles at high speeds before stopping thee kilometres further down."

Supt Casey said police would not tolerate this sort of hoon behaviour.

"These impoundments highlight the importance of the Hoon Hotline," he said.

"We encourage the community to call the hotline on 1800 333 000 to report any incidences of hoon behaviour."
