A DRIVER has had his car impounded after being caught allegedly speeding on the new Mordialloc Freeway.
Highway patrol members on the newly opened road allege that they spotted the speeding car at around 5.15pm on 10 January. They say the car was detected driving at 147 kmph.
Police pulled over the driver and impounded the car at a cost of just over $1000. The driver will face court at a later date.
“The new Mordialloc Freeway opening has made thousands of peoples commutes that little bit easier and Kingston Highway Patrol are doing their best to be out on the road ensuring the safety of road users,” a statement on the Police Eyewatch Facebook page read.
