dunno never seen him before, don't think i would reconise him if i seen him now..I will try and find out when he's in court and go and watch..
you do get these ppl that do it all the time and think nothing will ever happen to them...
He better get a custodial sentence but the laws an arse sometime...

You may 'feel' alright to drive, but the alcohol is probably already affecting you, slowing your reactions down.
Also, an interesting factor is that the Police can still arrest you if you are below the legal drink drive limit, but they suspect that you are unfit to drive through alcohol consumption...
