Just read the press available and to be honest it does not make sense to me. Not one of them says he was "charged" with drink driving but that he was arrested and bailed until December. Now that suggests, they are not sure what charges they are going to bring in relation to the way he was driving "at high speed" and are waiting for the CPS to see if they think there is evidence available for a more serious driving charge such as "dangerous driving" instead of "careless driving", dangerous driving carries a maximum sentence of 2 years inside plus and unlimited fine compared to the maximum of six months for careless, I don't think for one second that he would get anywhere near that though for just speeding and driving while under the influence, to get the top end of that sentence you really have to be endangering life.
If it was just a case of drink driving it would have been dealt with by the police there and then and he would have probably have been before the magistrates by now. Explains why he did not get on the pitch for England though.
What an idiot he got away relatively scott free with the gas incident, says he has learnt his lesson, now this. When you think this kid "had" the world at his feet and he kicks sand in its face
