Officers attached to Dubbo Highway Patrol were carrying out speed enforcement along Hennessey Drive as part of Operation Saturation when the man was detected riding at 131km/h in a 60km/h zone.

A police spokesperson said the 45-year-old rider was stopped and his licence was confiscated on the spot for six months.

His registration plates were confiscated for three months.

The man was issued with a $2304 fine for exceeding speed by more than 45km/h.

Western Region Highway Patrol Acting Inspector Peter McMenamin said the incident was a timely reminder for motorists if they continued to travel at high speed, they would be caught.

He said the aftermath of a crash involving a motorcyclist at 131km/h was for most people, too horrific to contemplate.

"We are talking life-ending stuff here," he said.

"Everyone needs to realise that when they get into a car or on a motorbike and travel on, they are in a position where they can kill or be killed, whether it's through inattention or otherwise.

"Having a driver's licence is a privilege some people are taking for granted.

"If you are involved in a serious collision, you can drastically change your own or the life of someone you know forever."

Acting Inspector McMenamin said even if drivers or riders ignored the safety messages, they might think twice when they realised they could lose their licence or had to pay a hefty fine.

"The consequences of being caught speeding, including the inconvenience of losing your licence for several months, are designed to be a deterrent," he said.

On Monday, police expressed their dismay after irresponsible road behaviour at the weekend pushed the 2016 road toll to 14.

Police would be out in force for the final phase of Operation Arrive Alive this weekend, followed by a double-demerit period for speeding, mobile phone, seat belt and motorcycle helmet offences from January 22 to January 26, 2016 inclusive.

"We are deploying Highway Patrol in numbers to areas identified for road trauma, supported by general duties police for the duration of this operation," NSW Police Acting Assistant Commissioner Stuart Smith said.
