A Brighton man was forced to watch his new Porsche Macan be driven away on the back of a tow truck after Somerville Highway Patrol (HWP) members caught him drink driving on the way home from his Mornington Peninsula holiday house on Monday evening.
After HWP initially observed the vehicle swerving in and out of the lane on the Penlink Freeway, the vehicle was intercepted. The driver underwent a breath test and allegedly returned a breath alcohol concentration of .142%. His vehicle was impounded and his licence was immediately suspended, pending attendance at court.
While this was a disappointing way to end the Easter Weekend, Police thanked the majority of visitors to the Peninsula for enjoying the long weekend responsibly and safely.
