A man has had his licence immediately suspended and his car impounded after allegedly driving more than six times over the legal limit in Hampton on Saturday afternoon (Sep. 21).
Bayside police officers intercepted the driver in the intersection of Orlando St and Beach Rd about 2.20pm.
The 41-year-old man underwent a preliminary breath test, before accompanying members to a nearby station where he returned an alleged evidentiary result of .319.
The Hampton East man had his car impounded for 30 days at a cost of $999.50 and is expected to be charged on summons with traffic offences.
Sergeant Daniel Burton, Bayside Police Station, said: “Police would like to thank the members of the public who assisted by calling Triple Zero in relation to their observations of an allegedly erratically driven vehicle.”
