Theres a chemical called Citrosol (sp?) Its basically varsol but its enviromentally friendly, well about as enviromentally friendly as you can get for a solvent. Just give him a tooth brush and some of that.

I know this doesn't solve his current problem. It will, however, solve future burnout problems. What I meant was he shouldn't have made the burnout in the first place. That way he wouldn't have to worry about cleaning it up.

You know what you need to have a little fun once in a while. Live a little. I would have most likely done a burnout. I do it at Walmart.

Okay, we've established he's a fucking moron by doing the burnout. STOP TELLING HIM NOT TO DO IT AGAIN. Just give advice on cleaning the shit up or stfu.

Take his car/truck away, And make him pay for them to take the concreate up & replace it. That way he has to PAY for his CRIME.

gosh grandma.

what is up your ass? You and killswitch act like youve never broken a rule when you thought you could get away with it.

YEAH RIGHT!

Depends on the roading surface,I guess.Concrete should be fairly easy with a waterblaster, but porous surfaces such as asphalt would be trickier.

Throw it back at the court and ask them to specify the method.Argue that the responsibility for deciding the cleanup method should rest with the owners of the property [in order to minimise any further damage to the surface].It's a reasonable demand that the offender make good the damage, but a bit pointless if he doesn't have access to the tools and skills to do the job effectively.

Breaking rules is dumb.Getting caught is dumber.Use a bit of common sense when doing burnouts.Empty parking lots and industrial parks are safer than housing projects, and fewer potential witnesses to screw you over.Your man can count himself lucky.Law here is that the cops can impound your vehicle on the spot for 28 days for 'sustained loss of traction',i.e. burnouts, donuts or just plain bad launches.

http://www.police.govt.nz/service/ro...cerdetails.php

You must not operate a motor vehicle in a race or in an unnecessary exhibition of speed or acceleration on a road (unless authorised by law).

You must not, without reasonable excuse, operate a motor vehicle on a road in a manner that causes the vehicle to undergo sustained loss of traction (unless authorised by law).

If you commit either of these offences the maximum is 3 months imprisonment, or $4,500 in fines, and a minimum period of disqualification of 6 months.

Doing burnouts/handrake squealies/drifting/launches =

Getting caught doing burnouts/squealies/drifting/launches =

Realising that you have to pay $300 for new tyres after doing too many burnouts/launches/handbrake squealies/drifting =

It's not illegal if you don't get caught and it's not stupid if you don't endanger anyone.

taranaki... that was pretty high and mighty. I was not saying that we should all just go burn rubber everywhere without using judgement. I was referring to the harsh reaction by "modifiedcars".

"make him PAY for his CRIME!!!" gimme a break

we all have broken rules at one time or another. Its not right to act like we are perfect just because someone else got caught. Sure it was dumb to do it in a housing project, but have we all not been in a situation where we did something against our best judgement?

"its not illegal if you don't get caught"... in a sense, it isn't. If you use your judgement and break rules when there is no chance of somebody seeing, and no chance of harming other people, or getting caught, then whats really the problem? If you are responsible enough to not get caught, then you aren't causing a problem. But if you are irresponsible enough to get caught, then you SHOULD be punished. Of course there are flaws and exceptions to that, but in some cases, it couldn't be more right.

So...Suggesting that people use a bit of common sense is 'high and mighty'?

Call me high and mighty then.Seems to me that you have an attuitude problem with anyone who doesn't see things your way.

Where did I say that using judgement is high and mighty? I don't have an attitude problem with anyone who disagrees with my views, but I disagree with the way you act like "the good child" whenever somebody defends another person's imperfections. You always say i tlike it's cut and dry. It's not. We all make mistakes, and we all have bad judgement sometimes. You can't grill people for messing up unless they do it consistently. In this case we don't know. Maybe he is just as smart as any of us, but knows he made a poor decision. You act like that is impossible.

whatever

I'm 43, I have learned a few things on my orbits around this planet.One is that rules don't just get made to piss people off, they are there to protect them from their own stupidity.It follows that if you believe this way that you must also believe that breaking rule is dumb.That's my opinion, if you dont care for it, it's no loss to me.
