A man who drank an entire bottle of rum before getting behind the wheel was just one of the many residents convicted of drink/drug driving in the Warwick court this week.
Police were called to a Clifton home at about 8.30pm on December 17 last year, where a drunk
Brett Howard Bennett was trying to force his way into a house he thought was his own.
The 51-year-old soon realised his mistake and drove away, stopping only a short way down the road after almost hitting a parked car.
The Warwick Magistrates Court heard the man had a blood alcohol concentration of 0.223, four and a half times the legal limit.
