A 23-year-old Greenmount man was allegedly caught doing burn-outs right outside the new traffic police headquarters in Midland yesterday.

Police Media's Ros Weatherall said that around 5pm, a Traffic Enforcement Group officer was leaving work when he spotted a man allegedly doing burn-outs outside the building.

The car allegedly lost traction and its wheels smoked up.

Ms Weatherall said the officer pulled the driver over. The car was seized for seven days under anti-hoon legislation.

The driver has been summonsed for allegedly causing excessive noise and smoke.

Traffic Enforcement Group only moved from Perth to Midland last week.

The alleged burnouts were the second outside a WA Police station this year.

On February 3, a learner driver was charged for the same offence after police at Cannington station heard tyres squealing.

The police went out to see a 24-year-old Maddington man allegedly spinning the wheels of his Ford Falcon in the station's front carpark.

That man's car was seized for 48 hours.
