A drink driver narrowly avoided a head-on collision at Prospect last night.
About 7pm on Monday 18 August, a traffic patrol spotted a red SUV driving on Daphne Street, Prospect when the car veered onto the wrong side of the road and nearly collided with an oncoming vehicle.
Police pulled over the SUV and the driver, a 42-year-old Banksia Park man, recorded a blood alcohol reading of 0.218 - more than four times the legal limit.
He was reported for drink driving and aggravated driving without due care and issued with a 12-month instant loss of licence. His vehicle was impounded for 28 days and he will be summonsed to appear in court at a later date.
