Two more drivers have been convicted after Essex Police's summer anti-drink and drug driving campaign.

There were 107 people arrested across the campaign which run from June 1 to June 30.

Adam Pipe, the Casualty Reduction Manager, said: “Every day we see people arrested for drink or drug driving and it is simply not acceptable.

“It is a reckless act and even a small amount of alcohol or drugs in your system can impair your ability to react behind the wheel."

She was arrested in Downbury Down, Basildon at 10.35am on June 17.

She has been disqualified from driving for 17 months, fined £190, and ordered to pay £30 victim surcharge and £45 costs for drink driving.
