The 40-year-old caught the attention of the police when he accelerated his black Yamaha R3 motorcycle rapidly on the Monaro Highway on-ramp at Pialligo and onto the highway at considerable speed on Wednesday evening.

"Police confirmed the motorcyclist was travelling at more than 55km/h over the posted speed limit and stopped the rider," ACT Policing said in a statement.

"His licence was immediately suspended and he received a fine of $1841 for exceeding the speed limit by more than 45km/h".
