A learner rider has been charged after he was caught speeding at more than 110kms over the legal limit on the state’s north coast, NSW Police say.
About 9.30pm yesterday (Saturday 8 December 2018), police from the Traffic and Highway Patrol detected a motorcycle travelling at excess speed along the Pacific Highway at Raleigh.
It’s alleged the Kawasaki was travelling at speeds of up to 220km/h in a sign-posted 110km/h zone.
Officers stopped the motorcycle and spoke with the rider, an 18-year-old man.
The man’s learner licence restricts him to a maximum speed of 90km/h.
The Valla Beach man was issued a Field Court Attendance Notice for riding at a speed dangerous, and excess speed limit over 45km/h.
He is due to appear at Coffs Harbour Local Court on 6 February 2019.
The man’s licence was suspended.
