In recent years, a disturbing phenomenon has emerged in almost all parts of Australia, which is some drivers exploiting cars as a means to cause panic among children, women and the weak-hearted.
Whether it is through loud engine sounds, sudden acceleration, or performing dangerous movements on the streets, these actions have become a source of disturbance to society, raising questions about the motives of these drivers and the impact of their actions.
Using loud engine sounds:
Some drivers modify their cars, such as installing sports sound tanks or removing the muffler, which results in a very loud sound that causes fear in children and women, especially in residential areas, and may disturb drivers who are not expecting these sounds who may panic and this may lead to committing violations or being exposed to accidents, or they may suffer a heart attack.
Sudden acceleration near pedestrians:
Some drivers deliberately increase the speed of the car suddenly while passing near children and women, which leads to their panic and possibly putting them in danger.
Showing off with dangerous moves:
These moves include drifting or driving at high speed in crowded streets, which poses a real threat to the lives of passers-by and causes terror among them.
The motives of these drivers:
– Attention: Some drivers see causing panic as a way to attract attention or to show strength and control.
Boredom and recklessness: Some young people resort to such behaviors for entertainment.
Lack of social awareness: Not realizing the impact of their actions on society, which makes them indifferent to the damage they cause.
Therefore, we appeal to the Australian government to take the necessary measures to prevent the negatives and loss of life that may occur as a result of the barbarism of some who do not care about the feelings of others.
If there were violations for those who use their cars to scare people, people would avoid this bad habit and children, women and the weak-hearted would remain safe.
