Cameraphones film hell-raising antics on highways

According to The Herlad Sun, hoon drivers ((people who use their vehicles in an irresponsible and dangerous manner in public places) on Victoria's major highways are using cameras and video mobile phones to record their hell-raising antics.

"Police have launched an investigation into the practice, warning that those responsible could face criminal charges. Some of the images have started to appear on hooning websites.

The police is encouraging passing motorists to use new technology, such as camera phones, to record the dare devils. "All we need is the numberplate and a description of the driver and we can follow it up from there", said Sgt Baum.
