Richard King speaks with Murray’s Beach resident Paul Neild about ongoing hooning, burnouts and dangerous driving plaguing the Lake Macquarie community. With reports dating back to 2023, residents say the situation is escalating, with near misses, intimidation, and organised gatherings occurring at all hours.

The issue was set to be raised at a council forum but has now been deferred to April, leaving locals frustrated and calling for urgent action before tragedy strikes.
