Learner driver allegedly caught breaking four road rules at once
A learner driver has had his licence suspended after he was allegedly caught breaking four rules at once on Queensland's most dangerous highway. The 31-year-old man was spotted at around 10.30pm on Sunday night by officers who alleged that he was driving at 123km/h in an 80km/h zone on the Bruce Highway in Cairns. When officers approached the car to question the alleged speeding, things quickly took a turn for the worse. Police allege there were no L-plates on display, and claim the supervisor in the passenger seat had a disqualified licence. In Queensland, learner drivers must be accompanied by a driver with an open licence for the same type of vehicle that is being driven. They need to have had that licence for at least one year. The driver was then subjected to a roadside breath test, where police allege it returned a positive result and was later recorded as a BAC of 0.207 per cent. Learner drivers must have a BAC of zero. The man's licence was suspended and he was hit with four charges: Disobeying the speed limit, did drive under the influence of liquor, learning to drive must be properly supervised-motor vehicles other than motorbikes, and learner must not drive motor vehicle unless L plates displayed and clearly legible. He's due to face Cairns Magistrates Court on July 8. The Bruce Highway, which stretches from Cairns to Brisbane, is home to all of the state's top five crash sites. It's ranked third in Australia's most crash-prone roads. Earlier this month, another L-plater was hit with a whopping $1,775 in fines and 22 demerit points after getting pulled over for speeding on the Hume Highway near Penrose in NSW. The male driver was caught driving 39km/h over the speed limit, while also using his phone and not displaying L-plates. The incident took place on the June long weekend, while double demerits were in force, leaving him automatically suspended from driving with a pending extension from NSW Transport.

'Dangerous' banned Pembrokeshire driver was over four times drink-drive limit
A DISQUALIFIED driver was over four times the drink-drive limit when he was driving dangerously in Pembrokeshire. Peter Edgar, 39, of Chestnut Way in Milford Haven, appeared at court charged with four offences. Edgar was driving a Vauxhall Combo van dangerously in Newgale on June 18. When breathalysed, he recorded having 151 micrograms of alcohol in 100 millilitres of breath. The legal limit is 35. Checks revealed Edgar was banned from driving at the time, meaning he was also driving without insurance. He pleaded guilty at Llanelli Magistrates Court on June 20 to dangerous driving, driving whilst disqualified, drink-driving, and driving without insurance. The magistrates declined jurisdiction of the case, and it was sent on to Swansea Crown Court. Edgar was remanded into custody, and will be sentenced on July 11.
