I'm going to court soon for drink driving and I remembered I got a cannabis caution at a festival in 2011 on the other side of the UK. Will this be mentioned in the hearing and / or have any effect on my punishment?
 
A list of your previous convictions and cautions will be handed to the magistrates and this previous offence of possessing cannabis may be mentioned in court. However it's not likely to have any impact on your punishment for the drink driving offence as its a dissimilar offence.
