What a absolute legend 🤙🏻
The brand new $786 million Bridgewater Bridge has been targeted by hoons, less than 30 hours after it opened to traffic.
Police are investigating an incident of reckless driving that occurred around 1:15am this morning in the northbound lanes of the bridge.
Video footage posted on Snapchat and subsequently shared with Pulse shows a vehicle performing multiple burnouts in a single location while traffic continued to flow in the opposite direction.
The person who filmed the dangerous driving decorated the video with celebratory party popper emojis.
Tasmania Police say they are working with State Growth to examine CCTV footage from the area to identify those responsible for the hooning incident - who could now face fines of up to $8,080 and 6 months imprisonment.
