Former Australia batter Warner convicted, fined for drink-driving
Australian cricketer David Warner pleaded guilty after failing a breath test while driving home.
Former Australia cricketer David Warner was convicted and fined A$1,500 for drink-driving in a Sydney court on Tuesday. Warner, a prominent member of the Australian cricket team, pleaded guilty after being arrested in April following a failed breath test. His blood-alcohol level was more than double the legal limit. The offence was particularly serious because children were present in the vehicle.
Warner was ordered to install an interlock device in his car to prevent it from starting if alcohol is detected in his system. Despite his past as one of Australia’s most decorated cricketers, Warner will now face the consequences of his actions.
