Police have pulled over a 24-year old driver that allegedly recorded an alcohol reading of .313 — which is six times over the legal limit.
Officers spotted the white Toyota Corolla allegedly swerving and crawling along Sheoak Street in Doveton about 10:30pm on Tuesday 13 January.
According to a media release, when caught, he did his best to convince Cardinia Highway Patrol officers that he was simply having a snooze in his car.
According to the statement, the Dandenong man jumped in the backseat and feigned taking a nap when pulled over.
Officers impounded the man’s vehicle for 30 days and will have to pay storage fees if he wants it returned.
He is also expected on summons for drinking and driving and other driving offences.
