Man to face court after alleged burnout in front of police

A man will face court after he allegedly performed a burnout in Melbourne's south-east.

Officers attacked to Achilles Taskforce, which targets high-risk driving, allegedly witnessed the man do a burnout at the intersection of Heatherton Road and Marshall Street in Noble Park at about 1.45pm on Sunday.

His driver's licence also showed he was subject to a zero blood alcohol restriction.

However, he allegedly returned a reading of .176 on a breath test, as well as a positive drug test for cannabis.

Police impounded his vehicle for 30 days at a cost of $913, and his licence was immediately suspended.

He is expected to be charged on summons with multiple offences.

Achilles Taskforce Sergeant Paul Holtzinger said this incident was the trifecta of risky behaviour while behind the wheel.

"To do a burnout at an intersection on a Sunday afternoon while allegedly both alcohol and drug-affected is extremely dangerous," he said.

"Your reaction times are severely impacted, and it is so easy to lose control of your car and crash into another vehicle or pedestrian."
