AN ULVERSTON man has been banned from driving for over three years.
Kamen Alty, of Maple Avenue, pleaded guilty to driving a motor vehicle above the legal alcohol and driving whilst over a specified controlled drug limit on January 11 at South Cumbria Magistrates Court.
The court heard the 24-year-old was stopped by officers on Swan Street, Ulverston, on July 6 last year.
The lowest reading showed he had been driving with 124 milligrams of alcohol in 100 millilitres of blood. The legal limit is 80 milligrams.
He was also found to have 100 ug/L of Benzoylecgonine in his system. The legal limit is 50 ug/L.
Magistrates imposed a 12-month community order and imposed a 16-week electronically monitored curfew order as punishment, preventing him from leaving his address between the hours of 7pm and 6am.
He was also disqualified from driving for 40 months.
