Extra police are out in force today across Queensland road networks as motorists travel home on the last day of the Easter long weekend.
More than 3,700 motorists were detected speeding on Easter Sunday including a motorcyclist who was allegedly travelling at 183km/h in a 100km/h zone on the Sunshine Motorway.
A 25-year-old Wellesley Island man has been charged with drink driving, driving unlicensed and failing to stop for police after being intercepted by police on Dijinkiya Streett on Mornington Island around 11pm last night.
The man had allegedly stopped his vehicle in the middle of the road but started driving off when officers approached the vehicle.
The man then allegedly provided a BAC of 0.252, more than five times the legal alcohol limit.
He is due to appear in the Mornington Island Magistrates Court on May 9.

• 187km/h in a 110km/h zone
