Trucks impounded under hoon legislation


One of two trucks impounded for driving too fast on the Monash. (ABC TV)

Video: Victoria Police Inspector Greg Parr talks about impounding two speeding trucks. (ABC News) Two truck drivers caught travelling at more than double the speed limit have become the first in Victoria to have their vehicles impounded under hoon legislation.

The two were detected speeding at around 90 kilometres in a construction zone on the Monash Freeway last night.

Police say the speed limit in the area had been reduced to 40 kilometres due to construction work between Toorak Road and the entrance to the Burnley Tunnel in Richmond.
