I was one of about 175 police, including the air wing, dog squad and mounted patrol that played with the hoons last night as part of Operation Friction2.
He's the Herald-Sun (Victoria, Aust) article . . .

This week about 20 of them that weren't there last night will get a knock on the door and they'll get to contribute to the State's finances. =]

Young bucks who like street racing or leaving their "mark" on the roads. Not sure what you'd call them, the English have bogans I think. =/
In the state of Victoria, hoon-related offences include burnouts, doughnuts, drag racing, repeated driving while disqualified and high-level speeding. Victoria Police have impounded an average of ten cars a day under the laws, with over 5,000 vehicles confiscated and impounded two years after the introduction of our "hoon laws"
Former Formula One World Champion Lewis Hamilton was desribed as a Hoon by a magistrate as he fined him A$500 after being caught by Victoria Police performing fishtails and burnouts in his Mercedes-AMG C63 two days before the 2010 Australian Grand Prix.
So for us, its just a a word to describe hoons!! hahaha =]"The beauty of life is, while we cannot undo what is done, we can see it, understand it, learn from it and change.

In the US, well PA at least, we refer to them as "assholes" or "little assholes." Maybe you've heard of it.
