A 16 YEAR old was caught riding a monkey bike with a blood alcohol reading of 0.047 last week, police say.

Police allege that they spotted the money bike traveling towards Dimitrios Close in Seaford, 11 February. They attempted to pull the driver over, but he evaded and ran into the backyard of a property.

Police say a 16-year-old they spoke to at the property admitted to riding the bike. He was allegedly not licensed to ride a motorbike, and the bike was not registered. He was taken to Carrum Downs police Station where he returned at evidentiary breath test reading of 0.047.

In a statement, police said the boy will be summonsed to court for: unlicensed, unregistered and drink driving offences”. The bike was impounded.

Police are dedicating more resources to stopping monkey bike riders in Frankston and the surrounding areas (“Monkey bike riders ‘number one issue’ The Times 15/2/2022).
