A 40-year-old Northern Rivers man faces multiple charges after allegedly drink-driving a lawnmower on Saturday night.
Tweed/Byron Police District officers reportedly stopped the man at the intersection of Shearer Court and Australia Drive, Terranora, about 7.45pm.
After the man tested positive to a roadside breath test, police took him back to Tweed Heads police station where a second breath analysis returned a reading of 0.243.
He’s received a Future Court Attendance Notice for high-range PCA (second offence), driving with an interlock device not functioning/circumvented, and using an unregistered class-A motor vehicle on road.
He’s due to appear at Tweed Heads Local Court on Monday 2 May 2022.
