A WOMAN who was more than three times the drink drive limit has been hit with a huge fine.

She admitted one charge of drink driving. The court heard she drove on Castle Way in Carlisle with 109 mg of alcohol in 100ml of breath - the legal limit is 35mg.
She was fined £575, banned from driving for two years, and ordered to pay a victim surcharge of £57 and costs of £85.
