Victoria Police Professional Standards Command detectives have charged a Protective Services Officer (PSO) following a collision in Truganina last year.
In a statement, Victoria Police said the Sergeant, from the Transit Safety Command, allegedly falsely nominated a driver involved in a collision on 6 October, 2024, while off-duty.
He was charged on summons with attempt to pervert the course of justice and obtain financial advantage by deception.
The 29 year-old was also previously charged with refuse preliminary breath test and careless driving.
He will appear before a court at a later date.
