The creator has had multiple run ins with the police prior to the entire situation blowing up in his face, with one of the first having occurred after going to a McDonald\u2019s drive-thru. Though they initially let him go, his viral videos showcasing consistent breaking of the law through unregulated modifications on vehicles, which the authorities labeled as defective upon inspection, brought the attention of the Queensland Police.
