Impound for suspended driver

A Dandenong North driver was behind the wheel with a suspended licence and drugs in his system, police allege.

Greater Dandenong Highway Patrol intercepted a Holden Berlina wagon on Jacksons Road in Noble Park North about 4.30pm on Tuesday 29 May.

Officers said the 37-year-old driver’s licence had been suspended for six months due to demerit points.

An oral fluid test allegedly returned a positive result for illicit drugs in the driver’s system.

Police impounded the Berlina and the driver attend Dandenong Magistrates’ Court to answer charges.
