Man Arrested in East Riding Nearly 3 Times Over Drink Drive Limit

Officers on their routine patrols spotted a vehicle being driven on the A164, Skidby roundabout just before 2am on Thursday morning, reportedly observing it being driven erratically and almost colliding with the central barrier and traffic cones.  

They were able to stop the vehicle on the A1079, and requested the driver to undertake a roadside breath test, of which he failed, blowing 104.  

The driver, a 51-year-old man, was consequently arrested on suspicion of drink driving and remains in police custody, at time of publication, assisting with Humberside Police's ongoing enquiries at this time.
