Cops escorting Cold Chisel caught speeding- 45kms over speed limit
THREE police officers in Western Australia's southwest have allegedly been caught speeding while escorting Cold Chisel from Busselton airport to their concert venue and may face hoon and reckless driving charges.
According to police, the special convoy of a sergeant, senior constable and constable were requested by concert organisers late Saturday afternoon and was "carried out for safety reasons, was sanctioned with consideration to the influx of people to the Margaret River region for the concert, the South-West fire and leavers' week."
A marked police motorbike allegedly driving 45km/h above the 80km/h limit was captured on a speed camera at 3.50pm.
Two marked police cars with their lights on, carrying Barnes and other band members were also allegedly captured speeding by the multanova.
The motorbike was seized under hoon laws and released a short time later.
Police Commissioner Karl O'Callaghan has launched a full investigation into the incident.
"I want some explanation about why they felt that was necessary," he told ABC Radio."Under what circumstances would someone do speeds like that for any reason, not just for an escort?
"They will face the full weight of the law if it's found that they've committed offences."
All three officers will be interviewed by police today.
