Mark Boothman MP Blog - 2017 - Hooning

Today Sid Cramp MP, Member for Gaven and I met with Senior Sergeant Chris Smith who is the new head of Road Policing in the Northern Gold Coast. It was great to hear Chris's vision and outline to tackle hooning and dangerous driving on our roads. We also spoke about the need to connect our communities through social media at the new North Gold Coast Crime Watch FB page.

Thank you to the Upper Coomera Neighbourhood Watch Group for the great work you do for the community. Also to the Officers from the Coomera Police Station for making yourselves available to discuss residents’ concerns, thank you.

I will continue to fight for more Police resources to keep our streets safe. Click continue reading to watch the latest news reports on this issue.

A few days ago I wrote "again" to the Minister For Police to express the dismay of many residents about the antisocial behaviour on our streets across the North Gold Coast. Our Police resources are stretched beyond their limits. My colleague Sid Cramp Member for Gaven and I are not going away Minister. We will harass you every week as our communities are crying out for more Police resources. Click continue reading for the letter.

It's been a busy Roadside today, but when it's a bit quite it's straight onto my Facebook Page to reply to the many comments on my post today about hooning.
