90-kmh in 60-kmh zone at Buxton


Mansfield Highway Patrol members are investigating after a speeding motorcyclist refused to pull over in Victoria’s north-east on Saturday (Oct. 6) morning.

Police clocked the green and white motorcycle travelling at 90kmh in a 60kmh zone on the Maroondah Highway in Buxton about 11.30am, said a Victoria Police news release.

They have caught up with the motorcycle in Taggerty and signalled to the rider to pull over however the rider has sped off.

No pursuit was initiated.

Police believe the motorcycle likely continued travelling north on the Maroondah Highway towards Alexandra.

Investigators would like to speak to anyone who saw the motorcycle, possibly a late-model Kawasaki, driving erratically in the area or has dash cam footage of the motorcycle to come forward.
