If you're a boy racer, beware.
Today, the first car
to be confiscated under boy racer laws was crushed.
Continue to flout the law,
and this could be your car.
This is the first car to be impounded for boy racer antics
on roads all over the country.
The crushing is a result
of the Vehicle Confiscation Amendment Bill 2009.
At that time, Judith Collins was Minister of Police,
earning her the nickname 'Crusher Collins'.
Now, the new minister is driving the initiative.
Under the bill, you get one strike, two strikes, but on the third,
your car is out.
And the Minister says numbers are down.
What do young car owners think?
116 cars are hanging on by a thread with their second chance.
On the third, your car will be dealt to by the Minister.
