Nunawading Highway Patrol were left shaking their heads after they picked up a P-plater more than 80km/h over the limit in Glen Waverley this morning.
The driver was first spotted travelling outbound on the Monash Freeway, near Blackburn Road, travelling more than 130km/h in the 100km/h zone about 12.15am.
Members, who were performing laser speed detection duties as part of Operation Trinity, took off after the motorist to pull him over.
The 20-year-old, who wasn't aware police were approaching, appeared to increase his speed travelling in excess of 180km/h.
Officers activated their lights and pulled over the Dandenong man on the EastLink exit shortly after.
The new model Ford Ranger Wildtrak was impounded for 30 days at a cost of $1000.
The man is expected to be charged on summons with exceeding the speed limit and other traffic related offences.
