Driver over drink-driving limit escapes injury

A 32-year-old driver was lucky to escape uninjured after he failed to negotiate a right-hand curve and crashed into a wall early on Saturday morning.

The incident happened shortly after 5 am near the station. When police arrived on the scene, the driver was given a breathalyser test, which showed he was almost three times over the permitted drink-driving limit. While the driver was uninjured, as mentioned, he was taken to hospital for a check-up.

The driver had his licence confiscated on the spot and can now expect to hear from the prosecution service.
