Miss Winstanley added: “She seldom drinks but when she does it is on a binge basis.” “She was fully cooperative with the police and honestly believed that she was alright to drive.”Īt the first hearing the judge had said: “With the amount of alcohol in your system you were a grave danger to yourself and the children and the general public.” The court heard that a social services report showed Knowles had good parenting skills and the children were doing well at school. Miss Winstanley said: “This was an isolated incident and she is completely devastated. She had intended to walk home to check on her other children but foolishly got into the car. Melanie Winstanley, defending Knowles, said she was devastated at what she had done and realised her stupidity. Prosecutor Tina Cunnane said:”The officer was astonished by the reading because she was so lucid and he had never seen one so high in 20 years in the job.”ĭuring a previous hearing it was said that at one stage Knowles had four of her children with her in the Dutton Arms in Eccles, on Easter Sunday. There is nothing I can do but to pass a custodial sentence – but I will suspend it.” “I don’t think I have come across a higher reading.

She was also ordered to pay £85 court costs.ĭistrict Judge Paul Richardson told her: “You have lived a blemishless life and then you behave like this, and to make it worse kids were in the car. She was given a three month suspended jail sentence and banned from the road for three years. Knowles, 29, of Darwell Avenue, Eccles, admitted driving with excess alcohol and being drunk in charge of children under seven. The limit is 35 and, the court heard, the officer who stopped her had never seen such a high reading during 20 years in the force. When she was stopped yards from her home, she gave a reading of 187 micrograms of alcohol in 100 millilitres of breath. Manchester magistrates heard how she drove down the middle of the road without her lights on. Police were tipped off and watched as Knowles drove out of the car park at 7.25pm – with her four- and five-year-old daughters inside. Laura Knowles, a mum of five, had been drinking all day in the pub before driving away in her silver Ford Puma. A mum who was FIVE times the drink-drive limit after a marathon Easter Sunday booze binge in Eccles was caught behind the wheel – with her two young daughters sitting in the back.
