AN EGREMONT woman was banned for a year for drink-driving.

Kailie Louise Humphreys, 29, of The Willows, admitted the offence when she appeared at the magistrates court in Workington on Friday.

Humphreys was found with 51mcg of alcohol in 100ml of breath when she was driving along Ashlea Road in Egremont on February 23.

The drink-drive limit is 35mcg of alcohol in 100ml of breath.

The ban can be reduced by 13 weeks if Humphreys successfully completes a drink-driving rehabilitation course.

She was also fined £120 and ordered to pay £85 costs and £30 to fund victim services.
