A joiner who decided to get behind the wheel after a Monday night booze session changed his mind mid-journey - and ditched his car in the middle of the road.
Steven McAuley spent his 33rd birthday at Paisley Sheriff Court and admitted driving while under the influence of alcohol on April 11.
The dad was almost five times over the legal drink drive limit, with 105mg of alcohol in 100ml of breath when he made the decision to get behind the wheel, reports the Paisley Daily Express.
