A 15-year-old drink driver who crashed they car they were driving into a house in Kambah is among three drink drivers caught by ACT Policing overnight.

They include: a 39-year-old Wanniassa man who recorded a blood-alcohol-reading of 0.198 after a single-vehicle collision in Wanniassa about 5.25pm Saturday 16 April; a 15-year-old who returned a reading of 0.107 after collision between a car and a house in Kambah about 11.10pm Saturday; and a 35-year-old Downer man who recorded 0.167 in a roadside test after he was intercepted by police on William Hovell Drive.  

Police are reminding drivers not to drink and drive, and that while for most drivers the blood alcohol limit is 0.05%, for provisional, probationary and learner licence holders the limit is zero.  

Further, an unlicensed person choosing to drive is committing an additional offence if they exceed zero blood-alcohol. 

After three days of the Easter double demerit period, police also report 42 drivers in the ACT have been caught speeding, with several high-range speeding offences detected. 

Yesterday, Saturday 16 April, a 28-year-old Evatt woman was detected driving at 110km/h in a 60km/h zone in Aranda. This driver informed police she was on her way to work, but not running late when stopped by police. 

She will be fined $1841 and accrue 12 demerit points on her licence, which is double the usual six-point penalty. 

Double demerits continue to apply to all speeding, seatbelt, and mobile phone offences attract double demerit points, as does riding without a helmet until Monday 18 April. Any other traffic offence incurs one additional demerit point.
