Woman Driver Blows Four Times Legal Limit, Following King Street Crash

BY ISABEL EVERETT

A woman will face court later in August, recording a blood alcohol reading of four times the legal limit, following a collision on King Street, Newcastle. 

Around 10.20pm on Sunday night, two vehicles collided near the intersection of King street and Union Street. 

Both drivers were submitted to a breath analysis, with a 28-year-old woman recording a reading of 0.232, more than four times the legal limit. 

Her licence was immediately suspended. 

She is due to appear in Newcastle Local Court later in August.
