A court's heard a woman who's admitted failing to provide a breath specimen for police "didn't have the puff" for the breathalyser.

Jacquelyn Price of Ballaradcliffe in Andreas appeared before deputy High Bailiff Jayne Hughes this week, when she changed her plea from not guilty.

The court heard she'd been stopped on suspicion of drink driving on October 31 when witnesses smelled alcohol as she got into her car outside a shop at 3pm.

She was granted bail and will appear again on March 20 for sentencing.
