A HEREFORD woman has been banned from the roads after being nearly three times over the drink drive limit. 

Lynne McNee, of Royal Wilding Place, Hereford, was driving a Mini in West Street, Leominster, on July 15. 

An evidential test showed that the 48-year-old had 92 microgrammes of alcohol in 100 millilitres of breath. The legal limit is 35mg.

McNee, who was represented by Michael Horne at Hereford Magistrates Court on August 30, was disqualified from driving for two years, which will be reduced by 24 weeks if she successfully completes a drink-drive rehabilitation course.

She was also fined £538, and told to pay court costs of £135 and a victim surcharge of £215 respectively.

Magistrates took into account McNee's guilty plea when sentencing her.
