Drink-driver handed suspended sentence

A Cregneash drink-driver who hid three bottles of booze in her underwear has been banned from the roads for five years.

Naomi Callister of Sound Road appeared before magistrates at Douglas Courthouse.

At an earlier hearing, the 49-year-old admitted drink-driving in Port Erin at around 7pm on July 20.

A member of the public spotted her weaving into oncoming traffic and followed her home before calling police 

When they arrived Callister needed help walking down stairs.

She was arrested and taken to police headquarters, where she turned out to be more than three times the legal limit.

Magistrates imposed a three-month prison sentence, suspended for 24 months, and a five-year driving ban.
