Drink driving is deadly. Every year, people up and down the country are killed by someone who gets behind the wheel while under the influence of alcohol.
Despite this being common knowledge, many people across Bucks have taken that risk recently, and have paid the price for drink driving in a variety of ways – by paying out fines, suffering driving bans and in some cases, receiving suspended prison sentences.
