A Dunfermline drink-driver got behind the wheel because he felt he needed to get home to be with his recently-deceased dog’s ashes.
Gordon Banks crashed his car and was found by the police about a mile from the accident scene as he struggled to get home.
Banks, 46, of High Beveridgewell, appeared at Dunfermline Sheriff Court.
He admitted that on November 21 on the B915 at Dunfermline he drove with excess alcohol (49 mics).
