A Cardiff motorist was arrested this morning after blowing nearly four times the legal alcohol limit during a routine stop by South Wales Police.
Blow Shatters Legal Limit
Officers from the Roads Policing Unit stopped the vehicle at 9:27am. The driver was asked to take a breathalyser test, where the legal limit is 35mcg of alcohol per 100ml of breath. The result? A shocking 120mcg—almost quadruple the limit.
The driver was immediately arrested and taken into custody.
Operation #OpLimit Cracks Down on Drink and Drug Drivers
South Wales Police posted the arrest on Facebook as part of their ongoing #OpLimit, a crackdown on drink and drug driving running day and night across the region. Several other arrests have already been made during this campaign.
“The message is clear. Don’t drink or drug drive.”
