But police were out on patrol and intercepted his vehicle on Laidley Plainland Road at Plainland, on December 26. He produced a positive alcohol reading, and further tests revealed he had a blood alcohol reading of 0.185. In the Gatton Magistrates Court on Monday, January 11, Magistrate Graham Lee told Herd that the reading was “getting pretty high”. Herd, 24, from Plainland, initially wanted an adjournment for one charge of driving under the influence of liquor.
