A man whose breath-alcohol was more than four times the drink-driving limit was on his way to get wine at breakfast time, a court has heard.
On November 5 at 9.40am, Peter Hamilton Irvine, 60, overshot a turn into North Rd, in Dunedin, narrowly missed a parked bus, then collided with the driver's door of a Toyota.
Yesterday's appearance before the Dunedin District Court marked his third conviction for a drink-driving offence.
Court documents show he drove about 30kmh, weaving along North Rd in the aftermath.
