A 40-year-old Bruce man has had his licence suspended after he was caught by police travelling at 145km/h in a 90km/h zone.

About 6.50pm last night, 27 March, police observed a black Yamaha R3 motorcycle accelerate rapidly on the Monaro Highway on-ramp at Pialligo, and continue onto the highway at considerable speed. 

Police confirmed the motorcyclist was travelling at more than 55km/h over the posted speed limit and stopped the rider. His licence was immediately suspended and he received a fine of $1841 for exceeding the speed limit by more than 45km/h.
