Yarra Ranges Highway Patrol - Not So Fun Police.

A 19-year-old P Plater was hoping for a bit of fun last night, loading up his fully sick Ford Falcon with four spare tyres and heading out to Warburton to engage in a 'fun' activity, only to be thwarted by a Highway Patrol unit specifically tasked to disrupting hoon offending in the Yarra Valley.

Firstly, he was observed speeding, and when intercepted was found to be driving unregistered, and had previously received a major defect notice that had not been cleared.

Unfortunately for him, he received 3 penalty notices totalling, $2300 and 6 demerit points.

Some of readers will see this as revenue raising, we see it as road safety and keeping other road users safe on the roads.

Stories like Mannu’s are a reminder that scammers can target everyday transactions when we least expect it.

💍 Is this ring your missing piece? 💍
We’ve got a wedding ring at the station, and it appears to have a rather important date engraved inside:
24/01/2020
If that date rings a bell 😉, the ring may belong to you — or someone you know.
We’d love to reunite it with its rightful owner. If you think you might be able to identify it, please get in touch with Ringwood Police on 9871 3000.
Proof of ownership required.
