Taskforce Regarder has arrested more than 55 offenders and seized 24 cars since it was set up to investigate the illegal hoon gatherings across Melbourne in November 2015.
The Taskforce, which comprises a team of detectives, highway patrol members and intelligence officers, works to disrupt these gatherings and gather evidence against highly organised offending groups.
