A P-plater has a date in court next month after crashing into traffic lights in Newcastle East overnight.
Police say the 22-year-old woman was driving a Mazda 3 at about 10.20pm when she lost control at the corner of Scott and Watt Streets.
It's alleged she returned a positive roadside breath test and was arrested and taken to Newcastle Police Station where she blew point 1-3-2.
She's had her licence suspended and has been charged with mid-range drink driving to face court on April 20.
