Sunday 23rd August became Silly Sunday for all the wrong reasons.

Somerville Highway Patrol members were kept busy with 5 drink drivers detected all in one afternoon.

A 76 year old man from Point Leo, a 28 year old disqualified driver from Botanic Ridge, a 45 year old woman from Tootgarook, a 28 year old man from Cranbourne North and 55 year old man from Frankston involved in a collision will all receive a licence loss for drink driving. Disappointed is an understatement.

A timely reminder with the warmer weather approaching... ☀️

If you have a drink and you're asking yourself 'Am I ok to drive?' you're probably not.

Don't drink & drive!
