Learning the hard way when almost double the speed limit

An L-plater may need to consider hitting the books again after allegedly being caught driving double the speed limit in Keilor Park late last night.

Brimbank Highway Patrol officers clocked a Hyundai i30 allegedly speeding at 192km/h in a 100 zone on the Ring Road about 11pm.

Police intercepted the Hyundai and a 17-year-old driver produced her learner’s permit.

A bus pass may be considered after the car was impounded for 30 days at a cost of $999.52.

The girl from Deanside is expected to be charged with exceed speed limit, speed dangerous and failing to display L plates.
