Queensland Police Service has announced an operation called Operation Capture which will increase an additional 50 police officers participating Random Breath Test activities in Southport and Surfers Paradise this coming weekend.
According to Sergeant Joe Black, the Spokesperson of Southport Police Station, 17 drivers had been arrested for drinking driving in the past 24 hours.
Most drivers caught were picked up at a RBT site on the Gold Coast Highway, at Surfers Paradise, were five P plated drivers and two learner drivers.
“The message is quite clear. If drivers drink and drive they can expect to be caught.
“Penalties are served and it could mean losing your license, paying a hefty fine or possibly spending time in jail if it is not your first offence,” Mr Black said.
Mr Black would like praise the efforts of his staff in their dedication to duty and thank those publications who do send this message out.
