Police have charged a 63-year-old man with drink driving offences after they were provided information by members of the public relating to his manner of driving.

The man, who was towing a large caravan, was intercepted by police on the East Tamar Highway at George Town about 12.45pm yesterday and was arrested and taken to George Town Police Station where he returned a breath analysis reading of 0.208, four times the legal limit.

The man has been disqualified from driving for a period of 24 months and was bailed to appear in the Launceston Court of Petty Sessions at a later date.

Police would like to thank the public for their assistance and encourage others to report any concerning driving behaviour on our roads by calling Tasmania Police on 131 444 or contact Crime Stoppers Tasmania on 1800 333 000 or crimestopperstas.com.au.
