ffs about time. These hoons have been tearing up our roads for years.

Drew Parker2026-06-30T16:50:43.000Z

tbh I'd rather see actual policing than this PR stunt

Sam North2026-06-30T17:46:43.000Z

yeah nah this is just a token gesture. they'll still find a way round it.

Sage Lawson2026-06-30T18:08:43.000Z

get a better argument. we pay enough taxes for this nonsense

Zoe King2026-06-30T18:36:43.000Z

lol yeah right. they just do skids in empty car parks, leave em alone

Noah Bennett2026-06-30T18:57:43.000Z

Crushing cars? That'll just push it all underground. Got better things to spend money on lol

facts, they'll just get better at hiding their cars. waste of time

All talk no action as usual. Wait till they actually crush a few cars then we'll talk.

Drew Parker2026-06-30T19:17:43.000Z

what about the noise pollution though? i live near a main road and it's driving me insane

Leo McKenzie2026-06-30T19:23:43.000Z

Just another tax on young people who like cars. What about the road rage idiots?

Sage Lawson2026-06-30T19:32:43.000Z

Thank god, finally someone doing something about the street racers near my place.

Leo McKenzie2026-06-30T19:55:43.000Z

NZ Herald2026-06-30T19:50:43.000Z

Sam North2026-06-30T20:32:43.000Z

Sam North2026-06-30T19:59:43.000Z

Crush em all I say. Maybe then they'll learn.
