A driver was travelling at more than 100km/h over the speed limit in Bangholme, police allege.
Greater Dandenong Highway Patrol members allegedly detected a Holden SS ute travelling at 199km/h in a 90km/h zone on Thompsons Road in the early hours of Friday 14 April.
They impounded the 28-year-old Reservoir man’s car for 30 days and will charge him on summons with driving at excessive and dangerous speeds.
The impound occurred as part of Operation Nexus, which is a state-wide road safety focus for all police until Anzac Day.
Police will target speed, fatigue, distraction, seatbelt non-compliance and impaired driving in an effort to reduce road trauma and improve road user behaviour.
The operation will run for 13 days, until midnight on Tuesday 25 April.
