Police from the Fawkner Highway Patrol picked up six drink drivers in Travancore this morning as well as an offence not usually seen during traffic intercepts.

An operation targeting drink drivers travelling up Mount Alexander Road after a celebratory night out in the city detected a 27-year-old Cobram man with an alleged BAC of 0.149.

His 27-year-old passenger from Strathmerton was also arrested when he exited the vehicle and decided to go to the toilet next to a nearby bus stop.

Unfortunately the man was so drunk he was not able to maintain his balance at the time and fell back.

He was subsequently issued with two penalty notices, one for drunk and one for offensive behaviour.

Other offences detected included:

• An unlicensed 20-year-old woman from West Footscray who allegedly blew 0.154

A 30-year-old P-Plater from Jacana who allegedly blew 0.127

• A 48-year-old woman from Pascoe Vale who allegedly blew 0.057

• A 22-year-old Melbourne man who allegedly blew 0.067

• A 45-year-old man from Roxburgh park who allegedly blew 0.150 and also received a penalty notice for drunk

• An 18-year old male P-Plater from Fawkner who allegedly blew 0.028 (with a license requirement of zero BAC)

A 60-year-old male from North Melbourne was also issued with a penalty notice due to a passenger travelling with a six-year-old child on their lap.

Police remind the public that a significant number of operations are in place today targeting 'morning after' drink drivers and other traffic offences.

Hahaha...

They didn't exactly say what happened... ...But you know that the divi-van had to be washed out this morning...

Part of the link at the top is "right in the poo" so that should explain it lol, also he was given a penalty notice not arrested, shitting his pants may have saved him from a night in the cells!

30 year old P plater? Are the penalties for drunk driving on P's higher than for those unlicensed? Not that I ever would but just wondering if the system is perhaps unfair in this regard.

it might have changed as this was 7-8 years ago now but a mate of mines brother and step dad both got caught same year his brother unlicensed as in never held one got a fine that was it his step dad got fine,lost licence and drink driving course apperantly if you have held a licence you know the rules better

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?

    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
