I wonder what the Pedestrian Council will have to say about it. Probably nothing as it doesn't support their sensationalist views.

Im sure Mr Teflon junior will have some excuse and be either let off or have charges reduced. Some of the other excuses are bull, like "he's just a normal kid growing up and his drink was spiked (reason for blacking out) more like he was para drunk!

He was driving a saab, Now they are turbo charged aren't they?
He is on his P's. Doesn't the law say no turbo cars for P platers? Or am I wrong?

I reckon he will get the book thrown at him...
The Victoria Police want a 5% wage increase at the moment to which Bracks is saying no (if you believe the ads currently playing on the radio) He will get done to the full extent of the law .......and then he has to go home. |

I think it's time that he made an example of his child, instead making examples of everyone else's.
So double the legal limit and if he is a P-Plater, they should throw the book at him. Actually, anyone who's done drink driving should have the book thrown at them. Just make sure his is the Melbourne Yellow Pages : |

hrrmmm a BAC of .129... should = definate instant loss of license and a 2 year license suspension....
as well as whatever else they throw at him... that seems fair considering my mate got done at .08 and lost his license for 18 months. |

Nice "scalp"! im sure the officers involved would be rubbing their hands together, especially judging by the way most members feel about bracks id say they'll be checking all the rule books and he'll get everything thrown at him.

Drink Driving Penalties are mandatory in Victoria, have been for a couple of years now, so if he's guilty he gets the same as everyone else, no more, no less.
