<\/b>A man has been charged with identity fraud offences after a traffic stop on the Hume Highway yesterday.<\/p>\n
About 2.15pm (Thursday 27 August 2015), Southern Region Traffic & Highway Patrol Command officers were travelling south near Goulburn, when they stopped a white Mitsubishi Magna.<\/p>\n
Officers spoke with the male driver who allegedly produced a NSW driver\u2019s licence. Inquiries were made with the RMS (Roads and Maritime Services) which established that the licence number and identity were fraudulent.<\/p>\n
Further inquiries were then made with officers from Macquarie Fields Traffic & Highway Patrol Command, who also stopped the same vehicle in early July. An alleged fraudulent driver\u2019s licence was also produced to officers during that traffic stop.<\/p>\n
A search of the driver located another three allegedly fraudulent NSW driver\u2019s licences and a fraudulent Medicare card.<\/p>\n
The man was arrested and taken to Goulburn Police Station where his identity was established as being a 28-year-old man from Braddon in the ACT.<\/p>\n
Records show the man is currently disqualified from driving until July 2018 from offences allegedly committed in the ACT.<\/p>\n
Traffic & Highway Patrol Command officers charged the man with 12 offences allegedly committed during the two traffic stops; exceed speed over 20km\/h, use false document to influence exercise of public duty (x5), unlawfully possess thing that resembles Australian driver licence (x4), and drive while disqualified (x2).<\/p>\n
