lets see now , sell the car and put the proceedes INTO the taxpayers coffers or dip your hand into the taxpayers money to PAY for it to be crushed !Wow it's a complex decision, Hope they don't get it wrong.
Lets not go and make cars more expensive for youth, that really doesn't solve a thing. Will just mean the cars being thrashed around are slower, and then when they crash they survive. Who would want that!

Me too. Boy racers and drunks are dangerous to have on our roads. Pity they cant leave the offender in the car and crush it

#57. Yep, and then when the car is crushed the driver can then stop paying and what is the finance going to repo if they dont have anything! Usually the car is all they got. Then its the finance co who gets done over by this stupid law.

Hence a new question on finance forms "Are you retarded enough to do burnouts on one of the most heavily policed roads in NZ!"

Yup, I think you can argue that there is a much wider society issue of bad/irresponsiblebehaviour on the road and bad attitudes towards driving and alcohol in general, which certainly isn't restricted to the boyracer stereotype that the media have created. Why just apply this crushing law just to them!

Regardless if car is crushed the boy still has to pay the finance company . it was just security for the loan . not owned by them . Thats why they do it that way , Lucky not UK theyconnfiscateyour carat roadside for no tax & insurance .let alone doing burnouts . They havenumber plate recognition in all the patrol cars
