Tameside magistrates have banned Mottram woman Jessica Dandy from the road for 17 months.

The 23-year-old, of Littlefields, admitted a charge of being exactly two times over the legal drink drive limit after being stopped on High Street West in Glossop on March 15.

The court heard she was found to have 70 microgrammes of alcohol in 100 millilitres of breath. The legal limit is 35.

Magistrates fined her £120, plus ordered her to pay £85 court costs and a £32 victim surcharge.

The disqualification can be reduced by 17 weeks if a driving course is satisfactorily completed.
