A 25-year-old Giralang man was detected speeding at 147km/h on Baldwin Drive, Kaleen on Good Friday, 15 April, exceeding the 60km/h limit by 87km/h. 

ACT Road Policing officers were conducting speed detection duties in the area about 1.30pm when they stopped the man. He will be fined $1841 and accrue twelve demerit points due to the Easter double demerit point period being in effect. 

About 10.25pm police patrols in Tennant Street Fyshwick observed a 32-year-old Melba man driving a green Toyota van performing an aggravated burnout in front of a large crowd of people.  

The crowd dispersed after the police intervention, and the van driver was fined $970. He will accrue four demerit points. 

Police would like to thank road users for heeding recent messages about not driving under the influence. No drivers were detected drink- or drug-driving on Friday. 

Double demerits apply for the remainder of the Easter weekend, until midnight Monday night 18 April. They will also be in place from Friday 22 April to Monday 25 April inclusive for the Anzac Day weekend.
