A plasterer who was caught drink-driving also had cocaine when he was stopped by police.
36 year old Leigh Daniel Martin of Jurby Road in Ramsey had denied drink-driving and possessing the class A drug but changed his pleas to guilty.
The court heard he was two and a half times the legal limit on June 3, and had 0.2 grams of cocaine in his pocket.
He was fined £2,200, banned from driving for three years and ordered to take a drink-driving rehabilitation course.
