Vauxhall Corsa driver drove while drunk a Newtown McDonald's
A woman who was drunk behind the wheel of her car at McDonald's in Newtown has lost her licence. Police were called to the fast-food venue after receiving a report from a concerned member of the public. Elise Cowley, of Lant Avenue in Llandrindod Wells, pleaded guilty to drink-driving when she was brought before Welshpool Magistrates' Court earlier today (Tuesday, July 29). Skye Connors, prosecuting, said Cowley had been driving a Vauxhall Corsa when she went to McDonald's. She continued: "A concerned member of the public called the police, who suspected the defendant was drink driving. "Police caught up with her, and the defendant was sitting in the driver's seat with the keys in the ignition and the engine running. "She put the window down, and officers noted the smell of alcohol, her eyes were glazed, and she had slurred speech." Ms. Connors explained that a roadside breath test could not be completed because the breathalyser was not calibrated. Therefore, Cowley was taken to Brecon Police Station, where she provided a reading of 41 microgrammes of alcohol in 100 milliliters of breath. The legal limit is 35µg. Owain Jones, defending Cowley, said his client was "most upset and sorry for her actions on that evening". "There's no evidence of bad driving, and it's a low-level reading," he added. Mr Jones continued: "She felt she was ok to drink as you might if you had a level reading as she did. "She had consumed alcohol many hours before she was arrested, so it came as a bit of a surprise." Magistrates banned Cowley from driving for 12 months, but she can reduce that by 12 weeks if she completes a drink-driving awareness course. The 35-year-old was also fined £80, and must pay £85 court costs and a £32 victim surcharge.
