The whole impoundment issue is not about what speeds are appropriate and punishing so called hoons for breaking traction or speeding or whatever plod and his goons have decided is not acceptable. It is an out and out cash (and asset) grab by Govco. It is legalised theft, pure and simple.
And this is why they get away with it...

Spot on, Govco is overstepping the mark here in a big way. The problem is as they get away with this one, the next overstep they wish to impose on some other part of your life becomes that little bit easier to get away with.
Theres an erosion of your personel rights happening right in front of you, all in an attempt to protect us against ourselves. Wether we like it or not.
There should be substantial fines for 45k's over and loss of licence and possible detention for repeat offenders but confiscating an individuals personel posessions is overstepping the mark.
Guns like cars dont kill, drivers and shooters do, thats where the govt's punishment should start and stop right at the source.
