Police were last week instructed to arrest a Fife man due to be sentenced for driving dangerously through Perth while drunk after he apparently walked out of court to go shopping.
Sean Downs previously pled guilt to three charges stating he drove an Audi without insurance along various main streets in the city at excessive speeds last October while he was almost two-and-a-half times the drink driving limit including the High Street, Kinnoull Street and Mill Street.
He admitted driving while the proportion of alcohol on his breath was 53 microgrammes per 100 millilitres - 31 microgrammes too high - and speeding along seven different streets on October 10, 2021 as well as driving the wrong way down a one-way street and going through a number of red lights.
