Disqualified Driver Allegedly Caught Drunk Behind The Wheel With Young Son In Car

BY IAN CROUCH

 A man's been caught drink driving on a disqualified licence with his young son in the car at Raymond Terrace.

Officers pulled over a Holden Commodore utility being driven by a 42-year-old man on Wahroonga Street just before 5.00pm yesterday - his 7-year-old son was sitting beside him in the front passenger seat.

The man was arrested after failing a roadside breath test - police also determined he was disqualified from driving until October 2018.

He was taken to Raymond Terrace Police Station where it's alleged he returned a blood alcohol reading of 0.087.

He's been charged with mid-range drink driving and disqualified driving and has been granted bail to face Raymond Terrace Local Court on 14 November 2016.
