Man booked twice

A PAKENHAM man was booked for speeding twice in 24 hours by the same police crew.
The 35yearold was clocked by police doing 142km/h in a 100km/h on the Princes Highway at Tynong about 10 pm on Saturday.
He was detected doing a similar speed further along the highway at Nar Nar Goon about 8.45pm on Sunday. A breath test later revealed his blood alcohol level to be 0.105per cent. — more than twice the legal limit.
Cardinia Traffic Management Unit sergeant Peter Garton said the man faced fines and a lengthy licence suspension.
