Man still three times over drink drive limit two hours after crashing at roundabout in Seaton Burn

A Nissan worker was still more than three times over the drink drive limit two hours after crashing his car.

Andrew Milburn was behind the wheel of his Nissan Qashqai when he smashed into some traffic lights at the Seaton Burn Roundabout, in Seaton Burn. The 37-year-old was taken to hospital by paramedics and not breathalysed by police until when he was discharged two hours after the collision, a court heard.

However, Milburn was still more than three times over the legal limit, giving a reading of 110mcg of alcohol in 100ml of breath when the legal limit is just 35mcg.
