A school teacher who was caught drink driving in Leeds has been fined more than £1,000.
Holly Carr, 30, has also been banned from driving for 15 months after she was pulled over by cops earlier this year. She pleaded guilty to a charge of driving a motor vehicle when her alcohol level was above the legal limit and was sentenced at Leeds Magistrates Court yesterday . The court heard that she had been drinking with a friend in the afternoon, before the pair decided to head home early due to Carr feeling unwell.
Officers said her speech was slurred and that there was a “strong smell of intoxicants”. A breath sample taken at the side of the road showed she had exceeded the legal alcohol limit. Defending, Laurence Dilworth said: “She didn’t think she was over the limit because it had been well over six hours since she had been drinking. She accepts that she shouldn’t have got behind the wheel.” He added: “She is embarrassed about the situation and it has given her cause to reflect.
