A 22-year-old man from Granton was charged following an alleged hooning incident on Lamprill Circle at Herdsmans Cove. He had his vehicle seized for three months.
A 15-year-old youth from Gagebrook was charged after allegedly riding at speed and without safety gear on Tottenham Road at Gagebrook. Their petrol-powered bike was seized for 28 days.
Inspector Luke Horne said, "Hooning is reckless and dangerous, and no matter how skilled the driver or rider believes they are, hooning behaviours put lives at risk."
"Tasmania Police are out on the roads every day enforcing road rules to keep motorists safe."
"You can help us by reporting dangerous driving if you see it."
"By working together, we can hold reckless drivers accountable and make our roads safer for everyone."
