Drink Driver Nabbed In Bonbeach

A man has had his licence immediately suspended for 12 months and his car impounded after allegedly driving more than three times over the legal limit in Bonbeach this morning.

Moorabbin Highway Patrol officers intercepted the driver on Nepean Highway about 12.50am on 29 September.

The 31-year-old man underwent a roadside breath test and returned an alleged evidentiary result of .191.

The Dandenong man had his car impounded for 30 days at a cost of $1100 and is expected to be charged on summons with traffic offences.

This intercept forms part of Operation Scoreboard, a statewide road policing operation coinciding with the AFL Grand Final long weekend in Victoria.

Police will be highly visible and enforcing across the state's roads in an effort to drive down road trauma.

Operation Scoreboard runs until 11:59pm Sunday 29 September 2024.
