A well regarded nurse, Jalna Yarwood 48, of Knutsford, Cheshire received a fine of £750, was ordered to pay £85 costs and a £15 victim surcharge in addition to receiving a 28 month ban from driving recently after being caught
drink driving. Yarwood was allegedly caught on route to her work Christmas party in Handforth, more than three times over the drink drive limit, following a minor collision with another vehicle. Yarwood, who alleged she had suffered some domestic issues and did not want to attend the Christmas party which is why she drank several gin and tonics before leaving, showed remorse for her actions and due to having completed charity work in the past managed to avoid having to complete community service due to the crime.
