Jennifer Stokes, aged 38, was caught driving a Ford Fiesta in Victoria Road, Oswestry last Friday, April 12.

A breathalyser test found she had 163 microgrammes of alcohol in 100 millilitres of breath - more than four-and-a-half times the legal limit in England and Wales of 35mcg.

Stokes, of Henley Drive, Oswestry, pleaded guilty to a charge of driving a motor vehicle when above the alcohol limit at Kidderminster Magistrates Court.

Her sentence was adjourned to May 14 at Telford Magistrates Court for a pre-sentence report.

Stokes was disqualified in the interim and granted unconditional bail.
