Speeding Banner

A speeding P-plater has had his licence suspended and his vehicle seized after being caught driving in excess of 50km/h above the posted speed limit. 

About 11.50pm last night (7 October 2023) ACT Road Policing officers were conducting mobile patrols on Horse Park Drive when they detected a white Toyota Camry travelling at 132km/h in an 80km/h zone. 

The driver, a 17-year-old Queanbeyan boy, was stopped and produced a NSW Provisional Drivers Licence. When asked why he was exceeding the speed limit by 52km/h, he was unable to provide a reason. 

The driver was issued with an Immediate Suspension Notice, suspending his right to drive in the ACT for 90 days, while his vehicle was also seized.
