Teacher Banned After Drink-Driving Crash | UK News
Description
A teacher banned from driving for 14 months after crashing her Land Rover outside a primary school while intoxicated—she’d consumed multiple glasses of prosecco and was distracted by a phone call. Facing a breathalyzer failure and court admission, she pleaded her trauma history, including domestic abuse and mental health issues, explaining she panicked upon seeing ex-partner’s friends. Despite her background, magistrates emphasized the danger of drunk driving near children, sentencing her to a hefty fine, victim surcharge, and monthly payments.
