SOMERVILLE Highway Patrol Members were astounded when they conducted an evidentiary breath test on a driver on 21 June who registered 0.223.

Officers were conducting preliminary breath testing on Skye Road, Frankston around 11.55am when a Mitsubishi sedan was intercepted for a random breath test.

The driver, a man in his 40s from Frankston North, was breath tested at the Carrum Downs police station and registered 0.223.

The driver was served with a notice of immediate suspension for 12 months and will be summonsed to court at a later date for drink driving offences.

Impairment offences are one of the main factors which contribute to the Road Toll and many serious injury collisions.
