Improvements to Policelink to make it easier for Logan residents to report hoons, Queensland police say

Queensland Police says changes to its reporting system, made in conjunction with Logan City Council's Hooning Taskforce, will make it less confusing for people dobbing in hoons.

Hoons are a huge problem across Logan, with drivers in noisy cars tearing up and down usually quiet streets in Greenbank, New Beith, Cedar Vale, Munruben and Mundoolun.

The move is also a win for police, who say they will catch more hoons because of the changes.

Assistant Commissioner Ben Marcus said the Policelink reporting process was simplified, with changes to the online form.

"Our online form has been enhanced so that is simple to use and allows members of the community to upload and provide any photos or videos of the offence captured," Assistant Commissioner Marcus said.

"This will increase our capacity to prosecute offenders for these kinds of offences, while also making the reporting process more streamlined for those wanting police investigations in their neighbourhoods.

"We know that our community does not accept nor tolerate dangerous driving and hooning behaviour.

"We will continue to use this new progression in the online reporting space to our advantage to police this kind of anti-social and life endangering behaviour."

Logan mayor Darren Power said council had a long and positive relationship with QPS and this was another example of the partnership.

"We have worked side-by-side with QPS for a long time and it's great to see our partnership having a broader impact," Cr Power said.

"While we know there is no quick fix, this is one measure that not only helps address the issue here in city of Logan but across the state.

"I want to acknowledge the work of the Hooning Taskforce in supporting QPS in the fight against this anti-social behaviour."

The taskforce includes which includes representatives council, police and Department of Main Roads.
