A DRIVER has received a surprise Easter gift from Eidsvold police this week after being caught driving 152km/h.
Eidsvold police observed the car travelling along the Burnett Hwy between Mundubbera and Eidsvold on Monday, April 13 at 9.30am.
The man was recorded driving 152km/h in a 100km/h zone, before being pulled over by police.
