A young Hobart man has had his car clamped for 28 days after police allegedly caught him doing a burnout in front of a crowd at Bridgewater.
Officers responded to reports of multiple vehicles hooning and driving dangerously on Glenstone Road late Wednesday night.
When police arrived, they allegedly found the 19-year-old doing a burnout while spectators looked on.
He will also appear in court at a later date.
Tasmania Police said they are now pursuing other drivers suspected of similar activity.
“Police will also be following up with several other drivers believed to be involved,” police said.
“This will include obtaining and reviewing CCTV footage from multiple businesses in the area.”
Police said this type of driving behaviour will not be tolerated.
“This kind of irresponsible behaviour places lives at risk and will not be tolerated,” police said.
“Police thank the community members who reported this dangerous conduct.”
“Public information helps police respond quickly and locate offenders to account.”
