Driver convicted for being 25 times over Drug limit

A woman high on cocaine who was caught 25 times over the drug-driving limit has been given a suspended jail sentence and banned from driving.

Zoe Davies was pulled over by police in Upton-upon-Severn, Worcestershire, because her MOT had expired. But a test found she had 1,286mcg of the metabolised form of cocaine per litre of blood. The limit is 50mcg.

Davies, was sentenced to 18 weeks in custody, suspended for a year, disqualified from driving for 3 years and ordered to pay costs of £135.

Legislation was brought in covering legal driving limits for 17 illegal and prescription drugs in March 2015. Previously, police had to show driving was impaired by drugs to prosecute.
