THE ‘birthday boy’ who crashed into a parked car and a tree in Dandenong had a blood alcohol concentration three times the legal limit, police allege.
The unlicensed 23-year-old Narre Warren South man was driving an uninsured vehicle belonging to a friend during the incident, which occurred in Wilma Avenue on the afternoon of Saturday 14 May.
Police allege he returned a .187 blood alcohol concentration and told officers “I was celebrating my birthday” when asked about his conduct.
Witnesses told police he was driving erratically before crashing into a parked car with its driver inside, causing minor injuries to the victim and pushing the vehicle to the other side of the road.
He then hit a tree.
Police expect to charge the man on summons with drink driving and other traffic-related offences.
