Provisional driver’s car clamped following high speed detection.      

A 29 year old man from Kings Meadows was intercepted during routine speed checks on the Bass Highway at 9am on Wednesday morning travelling at 175km/h.

The man was also given an oral fluid test which returned a positive result for THC (Cannabis) and Methamphetamine.

The vehicle, a Nissan coupe, was immediately clamped for 90days due to the speed at which it was detected travelling.  Further investigations have determined the vehicle is unregistered, uninsured and the driver is a provisional P1 license holder who was not displaying his “P” plates at the time of interception.  In addition the vehicle was also displaying false registration plates.

The offender will be proceeded against via summons.
