A Douglas woman who drove while more than three times over the legal limit has had her sentencing adjourned for reports.
Twenty-six year-old Louise Marie Kennedy, of Central Promenade admitted drink driving after being arrested in the early hours of March 21.
Police picked the defendant up after being called by a taxi driver worried about the way a car was being driven.
Edward Oldham reports (text, below, from attached audio file):
The taxi driver had seen a car left in a dangerous position after it was reversed out of Vicarage Road, Braddan.
A short time later he saw Kennedy and a man stagger back to the car.
They got in and the defendant drove off.
When stopped by officers her blood/alcohol level was 241 mg, the legal limit being 80.
Kennedy was bailed until April 29 by High Bailiff Michael Moyle, on the condition she doesn't drive.
