State Highway Patrol officers have impounded a motorcycle after it was observed allegedly travelling at 100km/h over the speed limit in Clayton South this evening.

It’s alleged the solo was travelling at 180km/h in an 80km/h zone.

To make matters worse, the 24-year-old male rider only held a restricted motorcycle licence.

The Yamaha was impounded for 30 days at a cost of $1159 and it’s expected the rider will be charged on summons.
