A woman who took a panel beater's loan car for a spin after a massive drinking binge was found by police asleep at the wheel of the car which had one of the tyres blown out.
Alisha Marie Bell, 33, appeared in the Dunedin District Court yesterday after pleading guilty to drink-driving and dangerous driving following an incident on September 5.
She was driving up Rattray St in the loan vehicle when the tyre blew with such force that it separated from the rim.
Bell, though, drove on, only pulling over in Duncan St.
