A woman has lost her licence after crashing into a breath-testing site in Geelong, all while allegedly blowing three times the legal limit.
Victoria Police said the 33-year-old Clifton Springs woman was driving her Dodge Journey wagon along Ryrie St about 1.25am Wednesday, approaching the intersection with Garden St.
Despite traffic cones, multiple police vehicles with emergency beacons and police members visible, the woman lost control and crashed into the back of a parked police vehicle.
The police vehicle and the woman’s car both suffered major damage, but no one was hurt in the crash.
The woman was subjected to a preliminary breath test, to which she returned a positive test before being arrested.
The woman was interviewed later and had to take another breath test, to which she allegedly returned a reading of .150, three times the legal limit.
A Victoria Police spokesman said “she is expected to be charged on summons with drink driving and traffic-related offences”.
