Chris Tarrant - Drink Drive
Discussion
Christ Tarrant has been banned for 12 months for 50microgrames of alcohol in 100 ml of breath - limit being 35 micrograms.
Fair enough. He had been drinking in a pub.
The thing that gives me pause is that he was reported to the poice by a member of public in the pub.
Would you have been that citizen?
I'm not sure I would.

Maybe Tarrant is a dick.
k. Top man. Perhaps the good citizen should have tried stopping him / got a lifeit is weird he pled guilt though. I guess the witness must have advised different.

Unless he knew he was banged to rights that would have been the classic 'hip flask defence'''‘Once he was at home, as he was not to drive himself again that day, he freely admits he drank a quantity of alcohol – some brandy and later some wine. ‘Having been at home for some time, he was called upon by a police officer who approached him outside his house and required him, following information received by a member of the public, to take a breath test.''

£6K fine!
Ouch, is it in some way means tested?
I'm guessing he a millionaire but why did he get a fine when someone like Wayne Rooney got a community order?
