Unlicensed, unregistered, uninsured and seriously drunk!

A 31-YEAR-OLD Griffith man was charged with high-range drink driving after being caught last night (April 28) in Aranda.

About 9.29pm police intercepted a Mitsubishi Lancer on William Hovell Drive.

The driver returned a positive breath test and was taken to City Police Station for further testing where he returned a reading of 0.193. The legal limit is 0.05 grams of alcohol per 210 litres of breath.

He was served with an Immediate Suspension Notice – removing his right to drive.

He will appear in the ACT Magistrates Court on June 1 charged with drink driving, unlicensed driving and driving an unregistered and uninsured vehicle.
