Jet Ski Hoons in Hervey Bay
You have to wonder what it’s going to take to get through to some jet ski riders here in Hervey Bay.
On Saturday police were called to the area around the Torquay pier to deal with several riders were were allegedly racing in waters close to the beach and then beaching their skis at high speed in an area where there were young children swimming.
While there are some who might think that such behaviour might be best controlled through stricter licensing procedures there is no procedure that can test for the common sense necessary to operate water craft in any conditions. And age is certainly no indication of the level of common sense that a person might have.
