Yes, Victoria Police may impound or immobilise the vehicle used for the hoon driving offence, regardless of who owns that vehicle. However, if the individual is charged with a second or third hoon-related offence, Victoria Police may ask the court to substitute the vehicle for one registered to the offender, for the purposes of the three-month impoundment or permanent forfeiture. Vehicles can only be forfeited on application to the court by Victoria Police following conviction of a third relevant offence being committed within a three year period.
