Hide AdA spokesperson said: “You may wonder how this is possible, but it is an easy mistake to make if you drive whilst under the influence of alcohol. The driver was lucky not to have brought harm to himself or another, however he wasn't so lucky when arrested and charged with driving whilst over the prescribed limit after failing a breath test in custody.”
Despite temperatures dropping to -4 degrees, South Yorkshire Police's operational support division were kept busy with a string of driving offences last night.
A Mercedes was seized by officers in Thorne for having no licence or insurance.
