Trucker admits drink-driving after Deeside visit

Istvan Nagy, 41, from Hungary, was banned from driving for 18 months at a bank holiday sitting of Flintshire magistrates' court at Mold on Saturday. The court heard he had drunk heavily the night before driving to a Deeside depot, where he drank two small beers. His firm has sent a replacement driver to return Nagy and the lorry.

Nagy, who lives about 50 miles from Budapest, was arrested on Thursday night after a manager at a weighbridge told police that the driver of a lorry on Deeside Industrial Estate appeared intoxicated, magistrates heard. Christine O'Kane, prosecuting, said when police asked him to take a breath test 20 minutes later, Nagy returned a result of 82 microgrammes of alcohol in his breath compared to the legal limit of 35.
