Traffic Offences Springfield

Police have charged a 25-year-old man following a traffic incident in Springfield on 28 April.

Around 10.25pm the man was travelling along Panorama Drive in a Holden Colorado utility when he allegedly crashed into a Toyota Corolla parked on the side of the road.

Police will further allege the man then drove off from the scene before abandoning his vehicle on Greenway Circuit and fleeing on foot.

The man was tracked by PD Iggy to Kingfisher Street where officers located him hiding behind a fence in parkland.

He was arrested and charged with one count each of failure to supply specimen of breath for analysis and driving without a licence.

He is due to appear in the Ipswich Magistrates Court on 20 May.

Investigations continue.

The Queensland Police Service is committed to reducing the number of lives lost on our roads. However, enforcement alone cannot stop all dangerous driving behaviours.

Every choice you make behind the wheel, matters. Driving under the influence, speeding, driving distracted or while fatigued, or not wearing a seatbelt puts your life – and the lives of others – at serious risk. These dangerous behaviours will not be tolerated.

Queenslanders can expect police – anywhere, anytime.

Road safety starts with you.
