Nunawading Highway Patrol - Road Policing Update

WE MEET AGAIN...👮‍♂️
Good Morning Eyewatchers,

Whilst patrolling in Surrey Hills on Tuesday, a registration caught my attention.

Not because it was stolen.

Not because it was wanted.

Because I was fairly certain I'd impounded it a few months ago.

Back in June, I suspended the licence of a 33-year-old Oakleigh East man for drink driving, arranged for his vehicle to be impounded, and secured him a date at the Magistrates' Court.

So when I saw the same vehicle travelling through Surrey Hills yesterday, I had a feeling I knew exactly who might be behind the wheel.

After intercepting the vehicle, the driver's facial expression suggested he remembered me too.

When spoken to, the man made full admissions to driving whilst suspended.

As a result, the vehicle was impounded for a second time and the driver will now be making another appearance before the Magistrates' Court.

I can't say I was expecting a reunion.

Judging by the look on his face, neither was he.

🚔 NUNAWADING HIGHWAY PATROL - THE ROAD REPORT

Good Morning Eyewatchers,

Another week on the roads, with two incidents highlighting some seriously dangerous driving behaviour encountered by our members.

🍺 HIGH-RANGE DRINK DRIVER
Following a collision in Mount Waverley, a driver returned a breath alcohol reading of 0.262. Their licence was immediately suspended for a minimum period of 12 months and will be summonsed to appear before the court at a later date.

🏍️ LEARNER MOTORCYCLE RIDER
A learner motorcycle rider, who had held their licence for just six weeks, was detected at 113 km/h in a 60 km/h zone, whilst carrying a pillion passenger.
The motorcycle was impounded and the driver will be summonsed to appear before the court at a later date.

These behaviours put not only the drivers themselves but other innocent road users at significant risk.

Our members will continue to target dangerous driving and hold those who disregard road safety accountable.

Stay tuned for next week's road safety update as our members continue targeting dangerous driving behaviours.

Until then, drive safely and look after each other.

As we reflect on a devastating weekend on our roads, this image is a reminder that every layer of motorcycle safety matters.

For riders, that starts with safe riding. Ride to the conditions, know your limits and don't push beyond them.

Wearing the right protective gear matters too. It's not just about comfort or appearance; it's another layer of protection when the unexpected happens.

For drivers, the need to look out for riders doesn't end with Motorcycle Awareness Month. Before turning, merging or entering an intersection, take that extra moment and make sure a rider isn't there.

🚔 Operation Furlong - Mid-Operation Road Safety Update 🚔

Good Afternoon Eyewatchers,

🚔 Operation Furlong has now reached the halfway mark, and while most motorists are steering in the right direction, a small number are still taking unnecessary risks.

While the vast majority of motorists have been doing the right thing, Nunawading Highway Patrol have still detected several drivers putting themselves and others at risk.

🔹 A 64-year-old Blackburn man was intercepted after being detected travelling at 70km/h in a 40km/h zone. He subsequently returned a positive breath test reading of 0.062. The driver was issued with two infringement notices, and his licence will be cancelled and disqualified for three months.

🔹 A 53-year-old Berwick woman was stopped at a preliminary breath testing site and returned a positive breath test reading of 0.065. She was issued with an infringement notice and her licence will be cancelled and disqualified for three months.

🔹 While members were conducting an intercept with their red and blue emergency lights activated a 40-year-old Melton man was detected travelling at 91km/h past the stationary police vehicle. Drivers are required to slow to 40km/h when passing stationary emergency vehicles displaying flashing lights. The driver was issued with a $366 infringement notice.

👏 Pleasingly, these incidents have been the exception rather than the rule. We'd like to thank the overwhelming majority of drivers who have been making safe decisions behind the wheel and helping to keep our roads safe during the operation.

⚠️ Road Safety Reminder

Every decision made behind the wheel matters. Speeding, drink driving and failing to slow down for emergency workers significantly increase the risk of serious collisions. If you see stationary emergency services vehicles displaying flashing lights, slow to 40km/h and proceed with caution. Never drink and drive, obey speed limits, and help ensure everyone gets home safely.

Operation Furlong will continue through to 11:59pm on Wednesday 4th November 2026 , with police remaining highly visible on the roads to detect dangerous driving and promote safer behaviours.
