Casey Highway Patrol officers allege they detected the driver’s Holden Commodore ute travelling at 133 km/h in an 80 km/h speed zone just after midday.
When asked by police his reason for exceeding the speed limit the driver said he “was having a bad day.”
He received a $793 penalty notice, eight demerit points and a 12 month licence suspension.
