PSNI Dungannon said on it’s Facebook page: “One of our crews has just made an arrest for excess alcohol.

“We can’t understand how some people think that it’s ok to get behind the wheel with alcohol in their system.

“Regardless of the risk of getting arrested by us (and losing their licence), do they not consider the danger they’re putting themselves and other road users in?”

They later said: “The vehicle has no insurance, so we’re making arrangements for it to be seized.”
