A woman from Saltdean has been banned from the roads after being caught drink driving twice in two days.

Sussex Police arrested Palmer on Monday (2 June) after stopping her in Sutton Park Road, Seaford, at 11.55am. She had 84 micrograms in 100 millilitres of breath.
Just over 24 hours later, at 2.20pm on Tuesday (3 June) she was stopped in Golden Jubilee Way in Eastbourne and arrested for drink driving again. This time she had 71µg of alcohol in 100ml of breath.
She pleaded guilty in court yesterday (Wednesday 4 June) when the bench also ordered her to pay £85 costs and a £20 victim surcharge.
