A 28-year-old Richmond man received a fine of $289 and three demerit points for travelling at 12km/h over the limit and was also fined of $361 for driving without a license.

A 30-year-old Fitzroy man was charged with driving at 108km/h in an 80km/h zone and was fined $397, four demerit points and had his licence suspended for one month.

Also on Promontory Road, a 33-year-old female driver from Belmont, was fined $180 and one demerit point for driving eight km/h over the limit.
