Over the Kings birthday weekend, you may see us out and about conducting roadside drug and alcohol testing. Often, we get asked "why are you doing this so early?"

This is why... At 8am on Thursday members from Moorabbin Highway Patrol intercepted a 45 year old male from Cranbourne driving a Ford Ranger for a routine licence check. Checks of his licence revealed that it was expired for almost a month. He then provided an evidentiary breath test reading of 0.139, well over the limit.

The driver's vehicle was impounded for a 30 day period and his licence suspended until the pending court date at Moorabbin Magistrates Court.

Just because you have had "some" sleep doesn't mean you will be ok to drive the following day. Please drive safely this long weekend.
