A learner driver and his supervisor, both from Langwarrin, had a New Year’s Eve to forget after being intercepted by Colac Highway Patrol officers on the Great Ocean Road.
The 25-year-old driver was caught driving at an alleged speed of 75 kilometres per hour, exceeding the 60 kilometres per hour speed limit, at approximately 9pm on Friday night.
Breath tests were conducted on both the learner driver and his supervising driver, with the supervising driver, also 25, providing an alleged blood alcohol concentration of .086.
Supervising drivers are required to adhere to the alcohol condition applicable to their licence.
The learner was issued an infringement notice for allegedly exceeding the speed limit, while the supervisor will be summonsed to appear before a Magistrate for allegedly exceeding the zero alcohol condition on their licence.
