A smashing Christmas...

Robert Smith, 19, of White Avenue, Langold, admitted drink driving, aggravated vehicle taking and driving without insurance.

Worksop magistrates heard Smith drank Stella and champagne before taking the car so he could see his girlfriend in Worksop. He crashed it into railings on Plantation Hill.

A breathalyser test read 47mgs alcohol - the limit is 30mgs. Smith told magistrates: “I regret it. I’m ashamed of myself.”

He was banned for 12 months, got a 12-month community order, 60 hours unpaid work and must pay £145 costs and victim surcharge.
