Hoon films himself speeding at almost three times the limit on city road

The driver filmed himself hitting dangerous speeds, even mocking police.

In one shot, he has one hand on the wheel and one hand on his phone filming.

Ignoring a 60km/h speed limit sign, he hurtles along Main South Road at Morphett Vale.

He then flies through a pedestrian crossing at 171km/h.  

It’s just one of a series of dangerous videos the driver has uploaded to social media.

He was already handed a defect notice for his car back in October, even bragging about his brushes with the law.

It’s the latest example of the type of behaviour new legislation is aiming to crack down on.

Introduced to parliament by Independent MP Frank Pangallo, if it passes, people who boast of their crimes online will face an extra two years in jail.

“It puts the life of the driver at risk and the life of other road users at risk,” Special Minister of State and Minister for Police, Emergency Services and Correctional Services Dan Cregan said.

“It’s absolutely outrageous.

“We’re concerned about it in South Australia.”

The government is giving close consideration to the proposal Pangello has raised.

The bill is still in its early stages but it’s expected to be brought on for a vote in early September. 

If successful, it will follow in the wake of similar laws already passed in New South Wales.
