A man grieving the death of his father drove while almost three times over the legal limit after a visit to a pub.
Dean Jordan, 47, of Linton Rise, Sneinton was stopped by police when they noticed his Ford Transit driving around a roundabout with its hazard lights on in Derbyshire, driving at just five miles per hour, after he left the Seven Wells pub in Etwall at around 9pm on Saturday, June 26, last year.
Prosecutor Teresa Simms told Southern Derbyshire Magistrates' Court that Jordan had drunk so much alcohol that he was deemed medically unfit to be taken into custody and had to be taken to Royal Derby Hospital.
