An unlicensed Heyfield resident whom Heyfield Police intercepted at 4.15pm on Sunday, December 18, returned a blood alcohol reading more than three times the legal limit.

Police, who were conducting mobile patrol and traffic enforcement duties together with Wellington Highway Patrol as part of Operation Roadwise 2022, impounded the vehicle for 30 days.

The 47-year-old Heyfield resident will be summonsed to appear in court at a later date.
