A South-East speeding blitz nabbed 24 drivers.
State Highway Patrol South East members set up on the Pound Road bridge over the South Gippsland Freeway in Hampton Park for three and a half hours on Wednesday 6 June.
In the 100 kilometre an hour speed zone they detected 18 drivers travelling between 10 and 15 km/h over the limit.
Officers detected six people travelling at more than 125km/h and issued them with an infringement notice that carried a licence suspension.
They allegedly caught a 33-year-old Prahran man driving a Mini Cooper at 150 km/h and impounded the vehicle.
The driver is expected to be charged on summons and was issued with a $983 impound notice.
Three of the speeding drivers also tested positive to an illicit drug and one had a suspended driver’s licence.
