Road policing officers took to the streets of Emerald, Cockatoo and Gembrook over the weekend as part of Operation Medusa.
Police breath tested 1526 drivers and were happy to discover only one of them exceeded the prescribed content of alcohol; a 49-year-old Cockatoo man received an infringement notice after providing an alleged reading of 0.081.
Highway Patrol officers were not so impressed by the following drivers:
• A 20-year-old Cockatoo woman will be summoned to court charged with fail to remain for oral fluid test, loss of traction, evade police and failing to display "P" plates
• A 33-year-old Pakenham Upper woman will be charged on summons for unlicenced driving and fail oral fluid test
• A 44-year-old Hallam man will also be charged on summons for fail oral fluid test
Operation Medusa left some drivers stoney-faced, all thanks to the hard work of members from Greater Dandenong Highway Patrol, Casey Highway Patrol, Cardinia Highway Patrol and Road Policing Drug and Alcohol Section.
