Drink-Driver Busted with Over Twice the Legal Limit in Canterbury
Petru Andries Caught Bleeding Red
Petru Andries, 45, from Stodmarsh Road, Canterbury, has been slammed with a three-year driving ban. The sentence came down at Folkestone Magistrates’ Court on 9 February 2022.
Over the Limit by a Mile
Andries admitted to driving while over the legal alcohol limit in Fordwich on 19 January 2022. Breath tests showed a staggering 92 microgrammes of alcohol per 100 millilitres of breath – nearly triple the legal limit of 35.
Punishment Fit for the Crime
- Three-year driving disqualification
- 120 hours unpaid work within 12 months
- £95 victim surcharge plus £85 court costs
Andries’ heavy drinking behind the wheel has cost him dearly – and serves as a stark warning to others thinking of taking the risk.
