Millgrove drink driver loses license after crashing into cars



A man has had his license immediately suspended after he allegedly crashed into two cars in Yarra Junction on the morning of Wednesday 25 October.

It is alleged the driver, a 67-year-old Millgrove man, was travelling along the Warburton Highway when he lost control and crashed into two cars, which were stationary at traffic lights, about 11.50am.

No one was injured.

The driver was required to accompany police to the police station for an evidentiary breath test where he provided an alleged reading of 0.216.

The man’s vehicle was too badly damaged to be driven and had to be towed.

The Millgrove man is expected to be charged on summons with traffic-related offences.
