A WOMAN caught drink-driving with excessive levels of alcohol in her breath has been disqualified from driving for nearly four years, just three years after being convicted of a similar offence.

Katie Dodd, aged 21, of Moat Crescent, Malvern, was caught with 97mcg of alcohol in 100ml of breath – the legal limit is 35mcg – when she was stopped by police in the early hours of Sunday, April 17.

Dodd was disqualified from driving for 44 months and given an 18-month community order, with 12 months supervision and the drink impaired driver’s programme. She must also pay £85 costs.
