P Plater Loses Licence in Naracoorte

A P plate driver involved in a crash at Naracoorte over the weekend has lost his licence.

Just after 12.30am on Saturday 9 November, patrols were called to Gordon Street after a Holden sedan crashed into a fence before coming to rest in the front yard of a property.

The driver, a 19-year-old man from Naracoorte, was breath tested and returned an alleged blood alcohol reading of 0.109.

He was reported for drink driving, aggravated driving without due care, drive during restricted hours (midnight to 5am) on a P1 licence, and drive with two or more accompanying peer passengers on a P1 Licence.

He was also issued with a six month immediate loss of licence and his car was impounded for 28 days.

The driver will be summonsed to appear in the Naracoorte Magistrates Court at a later date.

There no reported injuries.
