Hi, my partner decided to spend his day off with a mate going to Skegness. On the way they had a drink but then proceeded to drive the car onto a beach close to the town with the intention of stopping for a while by the sea and then walking into the town for a couple of hours. They opened a can of lager each and sat close to the car but in the meantime a local called the police as the car should not have been on the sand (which was stuck anyway and needed the council to tow it off).
As the coppers saw the drinks cans my partner was breathalysed & was positive. At the machine at the station he blew .9 over (about half a pint). He explained the circumstances and the police said they would be in touch if they decide to take the matter further.
Given that he was out of the car, not parked on a public road, intending to walk into town and not have anymore to drink, being about half a pint over and given the fact the police saw him drinking on the beach after the car was parked, what might be the outcome? Thank you
