Police in Dungannon have taken to social media to warn people about drink driving, by posting a stark image of a crash caused by driving over the drink drive limit (left). 

It's believed to have happened in the Mid Ulster area at the weekend.

 

Speaking after the accident on Saturday, a spokesperson for the PSNI said:

"This is the result of a driver who thought they could make their way home this morning after drinking late into the night.

"The driver was arrested at the scene on suspicion of driving with excess alcohol. Fortunately nobody was injured in this incident.

"Police will continue their Christmas drink driving campaign right through the festive period and there is never an excuse for driving after consuming alcohol or drugs."
