No drink driving arrests last night

Police say 'it appears the message got through, or at least for last night'.

On Friday evening (30 Nov), five people were arrested for drink driving, as officers step up their patrol efforts as the festive season approaches.

However last night, there were no arrests for drivers taking to the wheel whilst over the limit.

The annual Christmas drink drive campaign continues, with the hashtag #NONEFORTHEROAD.

Officers say they will continue patrols looking for drink drivers throughout the festive period, in their efforts to keep people safe.
