00:04Tonight on Highway Patrol, hot under the collar with hot take aways.
00:09You are not my God! You're not my father! Leave me alone!
00:14How many lies can one man tell in one intercept?
00:18So you lied to me about your address, how long you've been here, and you got your Victorian driver license
00:21status.
00:24And Australia's finest is going bye-bye.
00:27I've got a situation here mate, can I borrow your trailer?
00:53She's coming through that driveway.
00:55We've got a car going through the drive-through.
00:58So it's coming out the expired reg.
01:01Cancelled reg.
01:02Cancelled reg.
01:03The driver of this car obviously thinks it's worth the risk to make a late night run for some hot
01:09takeaways.
01:10Officers Williams and Singh are going to remind her that it's not.
01:18No worries.
01:21Licence please, thank you.
01:22I don't have a good army.
01:23You don't have a license?
01:24Do you have a license at all?
01:26I don't have to explain nothing.
01:27Okay.
01:28I am a sovereign person of this country.
01:31That's fine.
01:31Okay.
01:31I am not committing a crime.
01:33If, if I can't.
01:34I am not a criminal.
01:37I am not a criminal.
01:52Left lane.
01:54Two cars up.
01:57With school kids about, they need to catch up to this vehicle quickly.
02:01Expired Malaysian driving license.
02:04Oh dear.
02:05All right, this one might be interesting.
02:08And yet another school crossing.
02:11And hopefully he'll pull into this little, uh, here we go.
02:13Looks like he's, uh, picking up what we're putting down.
02:17Would you like a poft?
02:18Uh, yes please.
02:24Good afternoon.
02:25Kelly Sikey's my name from D. Nongahoa patrol.
02:28How did the alcoholic drink today?
02:30Oh, no.
02:31No, disciplinary breath test.
02:32I need to use one long deep breath and blow in the straw until I ask you to stop.
02:36Please, I'll hold it.
02:36That's fine.
02:39And stop.
02:42Oh!
02:44Not a good start.
02:45Not a good start.
02:55Is the vehicle ahead towing a boat, a crane or an aeroplane?
03:01Obscure plate in this trailer.
03:03It's not even plugged in here.
03:04Pull him over.
03:07PBT please.
03:09So we've got an unregistered trailer used for work purposes.
03:12The plug's not plugged in.
03:13So there's no brake lights indicators.
03:16And overhand.
03:17How you doing there, buddy?
03:18My name's Jack.
03:19Another wanting high patrol.
03:20Do you have your driver's license with you please?
03:22I do.
03:22What do you do?
03:22What do you do?
03:23Well, your trailer's not plugged in.
03:26Oh.
03:27It hasn't got a rego so there's obscured registration.
03:29One's a round, one's a square.
03:30Yeah.
03:31So it doesn't cut it that it's not plugged in, mate.
03:34In the tire doesn't make it any better.
03:36No, but it's not like saying one square one's round.
03:39It's an old old trailer.
03:40Oh.
03:40That becomes a you problem.
03:42You can go to super cheap auto.
03:44Repco.
03:44Any outlet.
03:46Servo.
03:46And get a converter, yeah?
03:47Yeah.
03:47Oh, jeez, mate.
03:51I reckon so, mate.
03:52He's got perforated titers.
03:53Tight here.
03:54I'm going to ground this.
03:55Yeah, yeah.
03:55You can't take this, mate.
03:57Oops.
04:04If I can't, so I will be very straight, I will be-
04:07Do your job properly.
04:08I'm doing my job.
04:09I will be very straightforward to you.
04:10If I can't confirm your ID, I'm going to arrest you.
04:14Is that clear?
04:15No.
04:16Is that clear or not?
04:18This is martial law.
04:20Right.
04:20Are you willing to provide me your name and details?
04:24I'm not-
04:24You're not putting nothing down my throat.
04:27You are invading my, you know, like, what are you doing?
04:30Okay.
04:31Very clear to you.
04:32I'm not a criminal.
04:33I'm going to-
04:34In my own country.
04:35Illuminal breath test.
04:36Either you do it or you refuse it.
04:39Pass it here.
04:40Yeah, okay.
04:40And this is all I'm taking and you take this because-
04:43One long breath for me, please.
04:44Thank you very much.
04:45Really appreciate that.
04:47Have you had any drinks?
04:48Yeah, I've had one.
04:49One drink.
04:50That's one.
04:51And-
04:51I wouldn't dare do it otherwise.
04:53Yeah, no, that's good.
04:54Alright, so next step would be just going a quick drug test.
04:59Have you ever done a drug test before?
05:01I'm not putting nothing down my throat.
05:02I will refuse that.
05:03I am not going to put anything under your throat or-
05:06Can you just shut this door and I wind the window down?
05:08It's not happening.
05:09It's not happening.
05:10It's not happening.
05:11It's not safe.
05:18And stop.
05:20Oh!
05:22Okay, sir.
05:23In my opinion, the result of the preliminary breath test indicates your breath contains
05:26alcohol.
05:27This driver reeks of alcohol.
05:30Officer Kelly Siakou has just seen him driving through two busy school crossings.
05:36Senior, are you happy with ID?
05:38Can you take your hat off for us, please, sir?
05:41Do you have anything else with your name on it?
05:48Do you have a brother?
05:52Do you go by any other names at all, sir?
05:55Do you own this car?
05:57It's not registered to you.
05:59How long you had the car, mate?
06:01One year.
06:02One year.
06:04What's happening here today?
06:05Okay.
06:05Okay.
06:06You produced a Malaysian license.
06:08Yep.
06:08And an international license.
06:09Well, that one's expired, the international one.
06:11However, the Malaysian one's not expired.
06:13However, you told me you'd be living in Australia for 12 months.
06:17Yep.
06:17Okay.
06:18Do you know how long you have to get a Victorian driver license after moving here?
06:22Six months, mate.
06:24Okay.
06:24So, at this moment, you're unlicensed.
06:26You can't drive from here?
06:27Yeah.
06:27Okay.
06:31Okay.
06:32Look in my eyes when I say, you're a sicko.
06:34You're a sicko.
06:36You's a warmonger.
06:37Leave me alone.
06:38Right.
06:39A risky run for some late night tucker in an unregistered car has landed this driver in
06:45hot water.
06:46You're doing that drug test or not?
06:48No.
06:49Okay.
06:50Is it going to be a refusal?
06:52Why?
06:52Okay.
06:53If you refuse, there is a loss of license straight away for two years.
06:55Yes?
06:56I don't care.
06:57I am not a criminal.
06:59I'm not saying here.
07:00You are not my God.
07:01You're not my father.
07:03Leave me alone.
07:04It's not about God or Father.
07:06It's simply doing the protest.
07:08You're a criminal.
07:08You're a criminal.
07:09Okay.
07:10Protect the people.
07:11Not, not, not, not do this to me.
07:14I've done nothing wrong to you.
07:16What have I done?
07:17We're just talking to you.
07:18I will stand my ground.
07:20I'm a sovereign citizen.
07:21Don't you dare.
07:22We're just talking to you calmly.
07:23Why can't you show us the same respect and talk to me, can't we?
07:27Because you're sick.
07:27You're not showing me no respect.
07:28You're just invading my privacy.
07:30Look, how is this respectful to me?
07:31Well, you're the driver of a motor vehicle on Victorian roads.
07:35Drink test and drug test.
07:37That's it.
07:37Once you do that, check everything and then we'll leave you alone.
07:41What are you doing?
07:43Leave me alone.
07:43I'm not a f***ing drug addict again.
07:45Oh.
07:50It's halfway across the intersection already.
07:53There you go.
07:53Let's have a chat.
07:55Officers McEwen and Holland want to remind this driver of the necessity of following the rules at intersections.
08:04G'day.
08:04How's it going?
08:05I don't know what I did.
08:07I know.
08:07I know.
08:08My name's Joe from the highway.
08:09Did you happen to see the signage at the intersection of Hare Street there?
08:12No, I didn't.
08:13No, you didn't see the signage.
08:14No, I didn't see it.
08:14All right.
08:14The signage there is a stop sign.
08:16There's also a left arrow.
08:17Yeah.
08:17So it's a left turn only.
08:18So obviously what you've done is you've gone straight through.
08:20Is there any lawful reason why you've gone straight through that today?
08:22It's a long way around, but I thought I'd go across.
08:26Look, give me a few misleadings and paperwork.
08:28I'll come back and have a chat with you.
08:29I won't be too long, all right?
08:29All right.
08:30No worries.
08:31So the left turn only sign and the stop sign at that intersection basically just prevents
08:36small-scale, low-speed collisions, mainly due to people running the stop sign or disobeying
08:41the left turn only sign, and it's just to avoid the unnecessary collisions.
08:46We have had issues where pedestrians have been crossing the road, curb to that traffic
08:52island there that's a bit of a haven for pedestrians.
08:55If people aren't paying attention and disobey the signage for stop signs or left turn only,
09:00then yeah, it definitely heightens the risk for pedestrians.
09:02Obviously it's just making more of awareness for the drivers that they need to follow that
09:07signage and keep the pedestrians safe.
09:10And if anyone should know what it's like being hit by a car...
09:14I did traffic control and I got run over, got hit and run actually, flipped up and landed
09:21on the road and so did my friend.
09:24They got 18 months and I got life.
09:26With a limp and a walking stick.
09:30When you consider that a vehicle versus a pedestrian is...
09:33I can see who's going to win that one.
09:35There's your licence pack.
09:36Yeah.
09:36Look, unfortunately for disobeying that sign today, it's $240.
09:40There's no points.
09:41It's 28 days to sort out...
09:42No points on this one.
09:4428 days to sort out what you want to do with it.
09:45All the details are on the back of the ticket.
09:46Do you have any questions for me?
09:47No.
09:48I'll probably pay it as soon as I get home.
09:49That's right.
09:50Just make sure you do pay attention to those signs.
09:52Yeah.
09:52We get a lot of small collisions.
09:53And obviously we want to try and avoid that if we can.
09:56Of course.
09:56Enjoy your day.
09:57Thanks very much.
09:57Yeah, it was alright.
09:58I just...
09:59It was stupid what I did.
10:00Now I go and get my bank balance and go home and watch NZIS.
10:03Yeah.
10:05At the end of the day, look, they know that they've done something wrong.
10:08It's not about punishing them as such, but it's about trying to get a message across,
10:11trying to educate them a little bit.
10:13And we do issue tickets, but at the end of the day, we want to get a message across that
10:16they need to obey signage to keep everyone safe.
10:27And stop.
10:28Yeah, he's blown over.
10:29He's blown over .05.
10:31He said he works in a factory and he's on his way home from work.
10:34So I'd say he might have had a couple of brews before he got in the car.
10:37He tells me he had his last drink at...well, this morning.
10:42And considering it's now 4 o'clock, that's a bit of a concern.
10:45This man has lied about drinking and driving.
10:49Officer Chris Corringers suspects he might be lying about his residency status too.
10:54Do you know when that visa was from until?
10:57So he's been in Australia since 2016.
11:01No worries.
11:02Thank you so much for that.
11:03I do appreciate it.
11:05So, Kelly, I've just called Immigration.
11:07Yep.
11:07He's been in the country on his last entrance since 2016.
11:11Oh, okay.
11:12And his visa was last renewed in 2020.
11:14Okay.
11:15But for the last seven years, he's been in the country.
11:18Yeah.
11:19I just made a phone call to Immigration.
11:21Yeah.
11:21And they say that you haven't been out of the country since 2016.
11:25Oh, yeah, yeah.
11:26Okay.
11:27You told me you'd only been living here for a year.
11:29Yeah.
11:30Okay.
11:30Why'd you lie to me?
11:32No.
11:33Two years.
11:35Two years in Springvale.
11:36Yeah.
11:36Okay.
11:37What else are you lying to me about?
11:40Uh...
11:40What?
11:40You mean what?
11:41Okay.
11:42What other involvements have you had with police?
11:44Nothing.
11:44Nothing.
11:46Okay.
11:47Well, we'll soon find out, won't we?
11:49Okay.
11:56Oh, goodness.
11:57Oh, geez, mate.
11:58Senior Constable Jack Parman is inspecting an overloaded, unroadworthy trailer held together
12:04by little more than rust and prayers.
12:07So, it can't overhang more than 25% off the trailer.
12:11If you've got them, you've got to use them, mate.
12:12Oh, good.
12:13This is over 25% of the length of the trailer.
12:17It can't be.
12:19Yep.
12:19The trailer's got a broken indicator.
12:21There's rust holes all through the body.
12:24The tyres are perforated.
12:25There's a couple of mil gap on the sides of the tyres, uh, going around.
12:31So, if he gets up to speed or gets heat in those tyres on a freeway, that could blow and
12:36the load is gone.
12:38Uh, and potentially, we're going to have a lot of metal on the freeway, inside another
12:42vehicle, cause collisions, potentially death.
12:46I'm going to ground it, mate.
12:47We'll defect this trailer.
12:48No worries.
12:49Can you get someone else to come and get this equipment?
12:51Yeah, I've got to make a couple of phone calls now.
12:53I've got to go pick up another trailer.
12:54Yeah, look at this, mate.
12:55It's rust all through here.
12:56The trailer's just about going.
12:57It's all rust all through.
12:59It's coming to the stage, mate.
13:00I've got a situation here, mate.
13:02Can I borrow your, uh, trailer?
13:06Uh, your little one, 64.
13:07Is that it owned?
13:09Where's the padlock?
13:12Okay, and how do I get in the garage?
13:15Yeah.
13:16Is anybody owned?
13:24I am not a criminal.
13:25I'm not saying you're a criminal.
13:26You are not my god.
13:27You're not my father.
13:29Leave me alone.
13:31After venting her anger at Officer Upkar Singh for doing his job,
13:35the driver of this unregistered car has finally calmed down.
13:40I'm just...
13:41Stop harassing me and get in my face.
13:43I'm just having this...
13:43I'm not a criminal.
13:44...temporarily.
13:45Taxpayer dollars.
13:46So I repeated that requirement two times.
13:48Murder and genocide.
13:49All right.
13:49Okay.
13:50I will send you summons in relation to refuse...
13:53...going, uh, undergo post.
13:55I ain't paying s***.
13:56You are going to receive an infringement notice
13:58for driving an unregistered motor vehicle.
14:00Yep.
14:00Then your number plate's been cancelled.
14:03That's all right.
14:03We will remove those number plates.
14:05Take it off now.
14:05I don't care.
14:06Do what you gotta do.
14:07That's what we're going to do.
14:09Okay?
14:09I'm not a criminal.
14:10I know that.
14:11Keep your facts checked.
14:12Keep your facts checked.
14:12I'm not saying that you're...
14:13Keep your facts checked.
14:14I am not saying that you're a criminal.
14:16Shut the door and leave me.
14:18Stop harassing me and get out of my face.
14:20Yep.
14:21F*** off.
14:24Refusing the drug test means there is a minimum loss of licence for two years.
14:28That's, I believe, mandatory.
14:29The matter will go to court.
14:30And the other thing, we remove the number plates, uh, from the car.
14:34And who sees the car keys, uh, we'll give her back after 24 hours.
14:38Someone, um, comes a responsible person to a police station.
14:41She will get that.
14:50It's right there, mate.
14:51The man behind the wheel of this white Holden has lied about drinking and driving.
14:56And how long he's been in the country.
14:59He's got a bit of everything.
15:01Yeah, so we'll have a bit more of a chat.
15:02After making further inquiries,
15:04officers, Corringers and SireQ have found out all they need to know.
15:09So...
15:10He doesn't have a driver's licence.
15:12But it's a learner's driver's licence.
15:13It's a learner's driver's licence.
15:14Oh.
15:15And he doesn't have anyone with him.
15:17Oh, that's exactly what I put out there and said I wanted to get.
15:19So there we go.
15:20Alright.
15:21Just turns out that this gentleman actually does have a driver licence here in Victoria.
15:26It's a learner's permit.
15:27So he, um, has produced an international licence and produced a, uh, Malaysian driver licence,
15:33but actually is a holder of a learner permit here in Victoria.
15:36There's no L plates up.
15:37He doesn't have an accompanying driver.
15:38And he's gone over on the PBT.
15:40These are exactly the sort of people we're trying to target today.
15:43Seems that you lied to me again.
15:45Okay?
15:46Don't have to say or do anything.
15:47Anything you do or say may be recorded and given in evidence.
15:49Do you understand that?
15:50Yeah.
15:51Okay.
15:51Our, uh, investigation has shown that...
15:54That is you?
15:55Yep.
15:55That is the photo on your Victorian learner permit.
15:58Yeah, yeah.
15:58So you lied to me about your address.
15:59You lied to me about how long you've been here.
16:01And you've lied to me about your Victorian driver licence status.
16:05And he lied about drinking and driving, in a school zone, when children were all over
16:10the streets.
16:12Can you produce your learner permit, please?
16:15Okay?
16:15And we'll just stop the crap from now on, mate.
16:17No lying.
16:18Okay?
16:19It's wasting everyone's time.
16:20When did you move?
16:22Uh, earlier this month, this year.
16:25Earlier this year?
16:26Yeah.
16:26Do you know how long you've got to take VicRoads to notify VicRoads about your change of address?
16:3314 days.
16:34You just keep racking them up, don't you, mate?
16:36Uh-huh.
16:37So we're looking at a few offences here today.
16:39Yeah.
16:39Wrong address, state false details to police.
16:43Learner unaccompanied, not displaying your L plates, and going over on the alcohol test.
16:49Okay?
16:51All right.
16:52Just wait there, mate.
17:00Well, what's happened was I've got a trailer there that's unroadworthy, I'd say, and I'm
17:04carrying something that's a little bit overhanging, um, and it's not legal.
17:09Yeah, so if you use it for work purposes, it must be a registered trailer.
17:13All right, because then you've got this racking, it's a 6x4, but you've got the racking which
17:17makes it a working trailer, so it's got to be registered, mate.
17:20Okay.
17:20All right.
17:21But if it's a 6x4, it doesn't have to be registered, does it?
17:22No, once you get a cage or this sort of stuff, it becomes a working trailer.
17:26Okay.
17:26So we can't see your rego from the back.
17:28There's no rego on the trailer.
17:30So we don't even know who you are.
17:32It's got to make more phone calls.
17:34Yeah.
17:35Yeah, get on the blower, mate.
17:36Yeah, I'll do that.
17:37And get someone down here.
17:39I'll do some checks.
17:40If it looks too big, it is.
17:43Check VicRoads' website for what your requirements are for what you can have on your trailer,
17:47and on your motor vehicle.
17:49So have a look what the overhangs are.
17:51If it's too big, if it's Bunnings, go use one of their trailers, a bigger trailer.
17:56Um, get it delivered.
17:59Finally, there's good news for the driver.
18:02Oh, not that.
18:04This.
18:05Thanks, mate.
18:06Oh, here we are.
18:06I've got to do that.
18:07It's coming through.
18:08Help is coming.
18:09Hey, G.
18:10Oops.
18:11Oh, he's got a car trailer.
18:12Oh, mate.
18:13Brilliant.
18:14Yeah.
18:15Grab that.
18:15Get him down here, and then I won't issue you the apprentice, all right?
18:18Let me go and bring help.
18:19All right.
18:21Uh, spoke to the driver.
18:22Um, he was very nice, very polite, uh, very helpful.
18:25He's hopped out.
18:26He explained to me why he didn't have a plugged in, because he hadn't purchased the adapter for
18:32the trailer.
18:33Yeah.
18:33So, a good outcome today.
18:34He was very, a good, a good citizen.
18:49I'll go through a few questions with you, okay?
18:51And then we'll do the breath test, all right?
18:53He stated a false name, stated a false address.
18:56Um, he's got a learner permit in, uh, Victoria.
19:01Um, he hasn't got no accompanying driver with him, and he's not displaying his L plates,
19:05as well as going over on the, um, PBT.
19:07It would have been nice if he told us the truth from the start.
19:10Um, you know, wasting our time a bit.
19:12But anyway, yes, uh, we always seem to find out the truth if we dig a little bit harder.
19:17We've pulled over a gentleman who is a learner unaccompanied and is still pending a evidentiary
19:22breath test as well.
19:24So, I was just hoping to get some authorisation for an impound, if that's all right.
19:28Keep going.
19:29Well done.
19:29Thanks, mate.
19:30Thank you very much.
19:31Appreciate it.
19:33The result of the analysis shows you have a breath alcohol concentration of 0.078,
19:39which is in excess of the prescribed limit.
19:41Do you understand that?
19:42Yeah.
19:42Do you have any comment to make in relation to that?
19:47Now, the car's not registered in your name.
19:50Whose car is it?
19:52Uh, my friend.
19:53Your friend?
19:53Yeah.
19:54I bought all this one.
19:56You're buying it off him.
19:57Okay.
19:58So, he's not relying on that car to get around?
20:00Is anyone else relying on that car to get around anywhere?
20:02Just you?
20:03Okay.
20:04Look, unfortunately it wasn't a very good day for him.
20:06He started off the, um, lying from the start.
20:08He's lied about who he is.
20:10He lied about where he lived.
20:12He lied about how long he's been in Australia.
20:15He's failed to produce a Victorian or any other Australian state licence.
20:18Okay.
20:19He's produced a Malaysian licence, which was expired.
20:22Then he's produced an international licence.
20:24Yeah, so he had no intention at all of producing his learner permit.
20:27He was quite happy to, um, make us believe that he had an international licence or a Malaysian
20:32driver licence.
20:33Um, unfortunately for him, we were able to find on the, um, the police communications that
20:36he did in fact have a learner permit, which he did to his credit produce when he was asked
20:40to produce it.
20:41Um, he didn't display his learner plates and, and when I asked him, it was, it was basically
20:46so that he didn't draw any police attention at all.
20:48He'll be receiving a summons from us to, to attend court in the near future and his vehicle
20:53is also being impounded.
21:04Next time on Highway Patrol.
21:08Failing to stop.
21:09Pull over.
21:10And failing full stop.
21:12Can you see me pull up beside you and tell you to stop?
21:15No.
21:16A late payment means he's late for work.
21:21And a genuine marvel on two wheels.
21:25Not every day you see Spider-Man getting around.
21:26Up tovais straw-r Bang.
21:27There.
21:27A General
