Officers spotted the driver in a van without headlights in Wodonga, Victoria, on June 24 at about 12.10am.
The driver of the van also ran a red light on High Street before he was intercepted.
The 21-year-old returned a positive breath test before a subsequent evidentiary breath test returned a reading of .102.
But the saga took an unexpected twist when, just hours later, another patrol unit noticed a black Holden Barina without headlights on Havelock Street at about 4.30am.
To the officers' surprise, they found the same driver behind the wheel.
IN OTHER NEWS:
The man returned another positive breath test of .067 before his car was impounded for 30 days.
It is expected the man will face charges, including disqualified driving, drink driving and disobeying a red light.
