Katarina Tothova, aged 40, had no idea where she was going when she was caught at around 4am on January 8 this year.

Katarina Tothova, aged 40, did not even remember getting in the car and had no idea where she was going when she was caught at around 4am on January 8 this year.

Police officers spotted her near the roundabout and attempted to get her to pull over. Tothova initially stopped dead in the road without moving over to the hard shoulder, before then moving to a safe area. Tothova, of The Red House, Priorslee Village, Telford, was facing sentence after previously pleading guilty at Kidderminster Magistrates Court to one count of dangerous driving and one count of driving a motor vehicle while above the alcohol limit.

"You got in the car at 4am having drank a bottle of vodka. You don't even remember getting in the car, let alone where you were going. Thankfully, it was at 4am and the traffic was sufficiently quiet for people to take evasive action."
