       ''The motor vehicle was left in the middle of the road. As officers approached the driver of that car, they could smell alcohol and the driver was intoxicated.

       "The driver apologised straight away, a road side test was conducted and it came back positive.

       ''She was taken a local police station and gave a reading of 84 microgrammes.

       "As a result of that reading and because there was a collision, she was offered the opportunity of an interview.

       “She said she had had three glasses of wine and that she had collided with a roundabout and was unable to drive any further.

       “She is a lady of good character and had a clean driving license.”

       In mitigation defence lawyer Stuart Thomson said: ''She co-operated fully and she is remorseful. She apologised to the police straight away. She is of good character.

       "She has gone from work out for a drink because they were moving office and she has had too much to drink.

       ''She works in sales and visits clients for events around the country but she no longer has the car due to it not being drivable.''

       Sentencing District Judge Bernard Begley told Boland: “I have taken into account the circumstances and you must not drive for the next 21 months. Do not do it.”
