In brief
Local police have continued their blitz on Noosa North Shore, with 157 random breath tests and 13 tickets issued during a two-hour operation.
Twelve people were caught speeding, with one driver clocking in at more than 20km/h over the speed limit.
One ticket was issued for a defective vehicle and one ticket was issued for failing to produce a licence.
Police said they received a complaint of a nude male on the beach. A warning was issued to a man.
Police also said a number of complaints were received in regards to hoons doing “donuts” and “wheelies” after dark.
Noosa Heads officer in charge Senior Sergeant Steve McReight said local police will increase patrols to help stop after-dark hoons tearing up the beach.
“It’s dangerous for a number of reasons. There are rocks, tides and it’s a dangerous combination in the dark,” he said.
