no but he was pissed………..so refused a sample and statutory 12 months disqual!!!….cynics might say its better to do this than provide, especially if your really pissed, so there is no evidence of just how pissed you are….
Quote below taken from "Drink-Driving Law in the UK" website "The penalties for refusing a breath or blood test at the police station are identical to those for a "standard" offence. However, the courts are likely to impose penalties well above the minimum for this offence - often a ban of eighteen months or two years - as refusal can clearly be used to conceal a very high blood-alcohol level. "
first offence like this numpty, failing to provide = 12 months disqual more often than not………..first offence excess alcohol where driver is x times over the limit having complied with everything asked of them = 18 months ban more often than not …..
Apparently, he was charged in 2003 with drink driving Derek Acorah On Drink-Driving Charge - Paranormal Phenomena
Thing is, he was exposed as a fraud years ago yet folk still pay to see the plonker. He was always good for a laugh on most haunted.
