Brief Description of Offence:
Was at a party and drunk several bottles of lager, went to the station and fell asleep for a few hours, came back and drove for a couple of miles at 6am. police followed me for the last bit and claimed i staggered out of the car
Blood Alcohol Level and Reading Type:
111 breath
Mitigating Factors:
clean record, guilty plea
Aggravating Factors:
none
Legal Representation at Court?:
No
Sentence:
24 month ban, 100 hours community service and £60 court costs
Offered the Drink Driving Rehabilitation Course?:
Yes and i didnt take it
Sentence Comments:
I expected the ban but thought the community service was harsh, probation suggested 60 hrs and maj wanted more but settled on 100
Now have my license back and can honestly say it was a wake up call and i won't drink drive again. In the year i have had it back only once have i driven after a drink and that was only one pint, i was so nervous driving even though i knew i was below the limit.
