Boozed driver gets stuck on railway tracks

A Victorian driver more than four times the legal alcohol limit has gotten stuck on railway tracks and had to be removed by a tow truck.

Police spotted the man as he tried to drive his ute onto the Stony Point railway line in Hastings, just before midnight.

The vehicle became stuck on the tracks and had to be removed by a tow truck.

The 38-year-old driver accompanied officers to a police station where he returned a breath test of 0.243.

The Safety Beach man's licence was immediately suspended and a suspension notice will be served on his vehicle.

When police asked the man where he was going, he said he was off to visit his kids for Christmas Day.
