The threat of being tasered brought a drink driver to his senses after he ran off when stopped by police in Cambridge. Police were on patrol in the city on the evening of 14 October when a Ford Transit van drove past them driving erratically.

Officers followed the van and used their blue lights and sirens to request it to stop but when it did, the driver, Miah Ray, attempted to run off.

The 31-year-old of Langley Close, Ramsey, was arrested and blew 78 at the roadside, double the legal limit of 35 microgrammes per 100ml of breath.

In custody he provided an evidential sample of 73 microgrammes.

At Cambridge Magistrates’ Court on Monday (18 November), Ray was disqualified from driving for 18 months after pleading guilty to drink driving.

PC Tom Russell, from the neighbourhood team, said: “Ray instantly knew he was in trouble and would be over the limit. There is absolutely no excuse for drink driving, it puts lives at risk and those who do it will be put before the courts.”

Cambridgeshire Constabulary operates a confidential, 24/7 hotline to report suspected drink or drug drivers on 0800 032 0845.
