00:00Hiya, you alright? How you doing? Yeah, you? Yeah, I'm canny. Have you had anything to
00:07drink tonight? A few. How many's a few? Like three. Right, OK. Do you know you've been
00:14in an accident? No. No, OK. Where have you crashed? I've gone straight over the walls.
00:21Sorry? I'm not sure which road it was. I haven't crashed it, I've just gone off, I couldn't
00:26see, so I've just slipped into the... He has gone straight over the top and taken
00:30out two of the Chevron signs and then collided with a lamppost. You must have been going
00:35some speed like to do that to your car. Yeah, I had a little bit of damage before. The wheels
00:43are about a foot dug into mud and I've come across the driver trying to dig the wheels
00:48out with his hands. Hello mate. Yeah? This your van? Yeah. What you doing like? Have
00:55you been drinking? Not today, no. You absolutely stink of alcohol, mate. You're swaying all
01:01over. Come sit in the back of our car, please. Just going to do a breath test, alright? Just
01:05given that you've clearly had an accident and driven a bit further on. If you've had
01:08more than you've said, the machine's going to tell us. Yeah, I've had like a glass of
01:11wine. A glass of wine, OK. Have you had a lot tonight or not? No. No? Like three glasses
01:17of wine. Right. So is it possible it'll be over at one point? Possible, mate, it depends
01:21from person to person. Three, four, five or six points. Do you think that's why you
01:27might have crashed your car? Er, a big deep breath in and blow and keep on blowing continuously
01:34until it stops. No, because that's the last thing I want to do. Keep going, keep going,
01:40keep going, keep going, keep going. There you go. Thank you. Yes, I know I've been drinking,
01:44but if I don't pass this, there's something wrong with me. Right, you've blown 114. Legal
01:51limit's 35. 96. Out of what? It's not out of anything. OK, so that's 83. Alright, so
01:58that's a fail. Yeah, so it's 68, the legal limit's 35, so this moment in time I'm going
02:02to arrest you. I'm not drunk. You're over the legal limit. I am over the legal limit,
02:05but I'm not drunk. Yeah, that's the highest I've ever had anyone blow. Maybe. Yeah, so
02:10you're under arrest for drink driving. You do not have to say anything, but it may harm
02:14your defence if you do not mention one question to something which you later rely on in court
02:17that you do say. You may be given an evidence. Can someone get this child, please? He's just
02:22blown 88. Hello, sweetheart. You alright? Yeah. Oh, yeah, God. Are you OK? No, no, I'm
02:29not OK. You could have killed someone. No, I know. Not OK at all, and your dog, and you.
02:34I understand. It's ridiculous. I understand. It's absolutely absurd, mate. I know it's
02:38wrong, mate. I know it's totally wrong. You could potentially kill somebody for yourself.
02:41I did kill my best friend. I killed one of my best friends. What, a dream driver? Yes.
02:49Do you want to give your head a shirt, mate? I just wanted some f***ing food because I
02:55was hungry. That's all it was. I was just hungry. It could be worse. We could be pulling
03:01you out of a wrecked vehicle, or God forbid somebody else. Looks like alcohol in the car.
03:05OK. What's your name? I've ruined my life. That's what I've done. I've ruined my life.
03:13Alright, pal.
03:18Is there anything in your car that you need to take with you?
03:21Not my dignity. No, it's fine. Is it your little hands, is it, in the car? So this is my son,
03:26and that's my other friend's son. That's your friend's son there? OK.
03:31How much time will I be out tomorrow? It depends, so we can't do anything.
03:36Right. I've locked her up. She's blue 74, but all the kids need to go to hospital to
03:41be looked at. We're going to need to get the dog to a vet as well. They were saying
03:44they got a broken leg or something from the crash. It's been a difficult day. I'm sorry.
03:50I've got no idea what you're dealing with at the minute, but you're still drunk driving.
03:53I'm not bothered. I'm a trained fighter. I'll punch your f***ing head in.
03:59Whose motor is it, then? It's my boss's, but he doesn't know I have it.
04:07That's going to make it even worse, isn't it?
04:10And while you're doing this, people's getting robbed.
04:13This is why people hate you, you know? Why?
04:16I was literally going home. I live half a mile away from home, right? Right.
04:20If you didn't pull me, I would have been home. Right, listen, I'll be canny with you,
04:24but you're the one who's been drunk driving. That kills people.
04:28What do you mean, right? I'm a safe driver.
04:33You're drunk, mate. The thing is, you made these choices tonight,
04:36not us, and we're just doing our job. Will you tell them to get off the road?
04:38Nope.
04:50So, it's your lucky day because you've blown the first reading of 30 and the second reading of 29.
04:56I'm all right. It's not my lucky day. I'm absolutely, bloody ashamed of myself.
05:09Yes, I haven't spoken, I'm just about to.
05:21Yeah, I was just...
05:25It's 0344. They're going to be under arrest for causing death to two persons by dangerous driving.
