Gardai release shocking video of drink-driver on rural road

Gardai have released shocking video footage of a drink-driver weaving all over a rural road in broad daylight, endangering unsuspecting motorists.

This driver appeared before Cork Circuit Criminal Court today and was convicted for drink driving and dangerous driving among other offences.

The driver received a four-year prison sentence, with one year suspended and has been disqualified from driving for 20 years.

In the footage supplied by a member of the public, the car can be seen driving into bends on the wrong side of the road and careering into the verges before rejoining the road, narrowly avoiding oncoming traffic.
