P-plate driver's car impounded after he was caught at 185 km/h in Laverton A P-PLATER was nabbed speeding at 185km/h along a freeway in Melbourne's south-west last night. The 18-year-old Werribee man had his vehicle impounded after officers detected it travelling 85km/h above the speed limit along the Princes Fwy in Laverton just before 10pm. Detectives from the Hobson's Bay Highway Patrol intercepted the white Holden utility after it was allegedly caught travelling at 185km/h in the 100km/h zone. Under hoon legislation, the teenager will be without his vehicle for 30 days. The driver is expected to be charged on summons with speeding and other traffic-related offences. Meanwhile, a 34-year-old Croydon man also lost his car and licence after another drink-driving offence last night in Melbourne's east. The man was caught by Maroondah Highway Patrol members on Mount Dandenong Rd in Croydon South, where he was found to be driving at 124km/h in a 60km/h area. Officers swooped on the man's Commodore sedan and intercepted the vehicle on Bayswater Rd just after 8.30pm. The man refused to accompany officers back to the police station for further tests after returning a positive preliminary breath test at the scene. He was taken into custody after he was arrested for being drunk and disorderly. His licence has been suspended and his car has also been impounded under the hoon legislation. The driver faces a number of charges, including speeding and failing to accompany police.
