A taxi driver who admitted driving while being more than three times over the legal alcohol limit has been banned from the roads for 18 months.

Michael Woodward, 56, of Robeson Way, Borehamwood, was caught by police in Manor Way on January 6 in his London Hackney Carriage. Transport for London automatically withdrew his taxi licence.

In addition to the ban, he was given a 12 month supervision order, ordered to attend a drink drive rehabilitation scheme and pay £55 costs.
