A speeding learner driver seen overtaking vehicles on double yellow lines has been hit in the pocket.

The 19-year-old man was clocked at 112kmh near Morrinsville about 2pm on Saturday.

He was heading south on State Highway 27 near Tatuanui, about 7km from Morrinsville, Waikato Senior Sergeant Pete van de Wetering​ said.

"We received a couple of complaints from motorists who saw this person overtaking on double yellow lines and at speeds that one would say would have to be significantly faster than the 112kmh he was clocked at with our radar," he said.

"[He was] also carrying a passenger with a learner licence only, therefore he was already breaching his learner licence status."

The teenager's driving was even more dangerous given the wet and windy weather in the Waikato this weekend, van de Wetering said.

When complaints were received, police sent nearby rural units to stop the driver and he was issued with "every infringement notice possible".

"[This example] really was the sort of driving we do not want or need, because they're accidents waiting to happen."

"A 19 year old on a learner driver licence attracting that sort of complaint - overtaking multiple cars on double yellow lines - that's just not good enough."

Van de Wetering encouraged motorists who see bad driving to contact police.

"Unfortunately, sometimes we have more complaints than we can deal with; but, nonetheless, we want people to ring us."
