Taylor Jade Rosser drove disqualified in Caloundra

An Australian Border Force officer pretended to have another identity to fool police after she was busted driving disqualified around Caloundra.

An Australian Border Force officer tried to dupe police with another person’s identity after she was pinged driving disqualified in Caloundra during the floods.

Taylor Jade Rosser had her licence suspended for two years which in her words would put her job in jeopardy, Caloundra Magistrates Court heard.

Police prosecutor Stu Lydford said police intercepted Rosser about 9am on February 21, 2022 on Lewis St for a licence check.

Sergeant Lydford said Rosser had given police a misleading document which was a copy of a licence belonging to someone else and said it was expired.

The court heard police easily discovered that it was not her licence because Rosser’s was disqualified.

Rosser represented herself and said she had moved from Sydney and had driven to the shops to pick up her medication on February 21, 2022.

She told the court this was during the Sunshine Coast flood event in early-2022.

The court heard Rosser had been working as an Australian Border Force officer after studying for eight years and this disqualification would impact her job greatly.

Acting Magistrate Raelene Ellis said her hands were tied with what disqualification she could hand out.

Rosser pleaded guilty to giving false or misleading documents and driving disqualified and she was suspended from driving for two years.

She was also fined $450.

No conviction was recorded.
