Driver crashed into wall after 5 pints at pub

Police also found a small bag of cocaine on the window cleaner during a search at the police station.

The 37-year-old pleaded guilty to driving whilst over the prescribed limit and possession of a class A drug.

He admitted that he’d drunk five pints of San Miguel and should have got a taxi home from the pub.

His solicitor Rachel Sharpe told magistrates that he had been out of trouble for 15 years.

She added: “He accepts making the wrong decision to drive home, losing control and colliding with a wall.

“Fortunately for him he wasn’t injured and neither was any other party.”

Magistrates banned Dawson, of Field Road in Holmfirth, from driving for 18 months.

He was fined £238 and told to pay £85 costs plus £30 victim surcharge.

The forfeiture and destruction of his cocaine was ordered.
