00:00I wanted to bring you here today to look at what is another example of a bloody idiot on our roads
00:08who thinks they are above the law and they've paid an extremely high price for their stupidity.
00:15The Maserati behind me was seized late last year after the 42-year-old driver was convicted of a
00:21serious drink driving offence. Now we can't believe what happened after that. This same driver that
00:28lost his Maserati continued to drive. He drove the black Mercedes behind me. He drove a friend's
00:36Mercedes. He was spotted on at least three occasions behind the wheel. The car behind me has been
00:43impounded for now. Police are going to proceed with charges against this individual and if they're
00:50successful they will apply for permanent seizure of the Mercedes as well and you'll be able to see
00:57that Mercedes wrapped up in colours to promote road safety just like the Maserati. We're going to use
01:05these seized vehicles to send a very clear message to others that if you break the law say goodbye to
01:12your toy. He's realised how significant this is and how serious it is and of course losing two high-end
01:18vehicles is going to have an impact upon his life. There should be no tolerance for this behaviour.
01:24It is dangerous and deadly. We've had enough. We're not going to cop it anymore.
