Drink driver on school run already disqualified twice

A man who was already the subject of two separate driving bans was caught driving his son home from national school while over the drink-driving limit.

Aurelijus Verseckas, aged 40, had been detected by gardaí on September 4 at 2.55pm after they saw he was driving without wearing his seatbelt.

Clonakilty District Court yesterday heard two gardaí were on mobile patrol at Lisavaird, West Cork, and observed a Toyota Avensis on the road.
