Drink driver told police he was driving because he was less intoxicated than his passenger

A drink driver in Austraila's Northen Territory told police he was driving because he was less intoxicated than his passenger.

The driver was pulled up at the Thirsty Camel bottleshop in Katherine on Thursday afternoon.



Acting Superintendent Brendan Muldoon said police noticed the vehicle when it pulled into the drive-through for some supplies at about 2.20pm.

The driver allegedly appeared intoxicated, so police decided to breath test him. He returned a .153 reading. “His excuse for driving was that he was less intoxicated than his passenger,” Supt Muldoon said.
