POLICE started their Christmas blitz from midnight . Operation Roadwise comes as the number of lives lost in Victoria reaches 236, already surpassing last year’s total of 234 and sitting above the five-year average of 221. With 40 per cent of last year’s Operation Roadwise infringements issued for speeding, police are reminding motorists to keep the foot off the accelerator to avoid a costly Christmas – the penalty for speeding by more than 10kmh but less than 15kmh is $370 and three demerit points, with those exceeding the speed limit by more than 25kmh facing even more significant penalties and a suspended licence.
