Drink driver was three times over legal limit

A driver from Hadfield was found to be more than three times over the legal drink drive limit, Stockport magistrates heard.

Jamie Cowle, 26, of Malvern Rise, pleaded guilty to the offence which had happened on November 1 on Dinting Vale, Glossop.

The court heard he was found to have 106 microgrammes of alcohol in 100 millilitres of breath. The legal limit is 35.

Magistrates disqualified him from driving for two years and issued him with a three month curfew order, meaning he must remain at his address between the hours of midnight and 8am each night.

He must pay £85 court costs and a £95 victim surcharge.

The driving ban can be reduced by 24 weeks if a driving course is successfully completed.
