A man was arrested after he took his dad's Audi and swerved it off the road in Bury. The driver, who blew more than twice the drink drive limit, was taken away by police in the early hours of Sunday (May 8).
Pictures shared by Greater Manchester Police show the silver Audi, which appears to have swerved off the road after failing to stop for officers, but was luckily brought to a halt, teetering downwards over the edge of a footpath. There were no injuries.
Seen on the ground below is part of a black railing, which appears to have been ploughed into after the driver swerved off the A58, Angouleme Way, in Bury, close to the town centre. Police confirmed the driver was arrested after taking the vehicle without consent (TWOC) and blowing more than double the legal drink-drive limit.
