Drink drivers, and those in court for similar offences, appear in Worcestershire courts every week.

Drink driving normally attracts a compulsory driving ban and usually results in a hefty fine.

Here are some of the drink drivers who have appeared at Worcester Magistrates Court this month: 

 

ROY FRANKUM, of Broadway Road, Childswickham, Broadway, admitted drink driving and having no insurance. 

The court heard the 35-year-old drove a Vauxhall Corsa on Broadway Road when he had 49mcg of alcohol in 100ml of breath. 

The offence was committed on August 31 this year - police also finding he had no insurance. 

Frankum was disqualified from driving for a year, but was offered the chance to do the drink-drive awareness course to reduce the ban length. 

Frankum was fined £173 and told to pay £135 costs, £69 victim surcharge.
