A 72-year-old woman has been disqualified from driving after being found three times over the legal limit while driving to Dunedin.
Senior Sergeant Anthony Bond, of Dunedin, said officers were conducting breath testing near Glenfalloch Gardens in Portobello Rd at 1.40pm yesterday.
The woman recorded a breath alcohol level of 750mcg, three times the legal limit, and told officers she was headed into town to do some shopping, Snr Sgt Bond said.
The woman was disqualified for driving for 28 days and would appear in court charged with drink driving, Snr Sgt Bond said.
