RESPONSE

The below data is based on the number of custody records with a drink driving offence. If the person has been arrested for multiple offences they will be counted once however, if they have been arrested for the same offence on multiple occasions, they will be counted for each time they were brought to custody. The Date is based off the arrival date into custody, not the date of the offence.
The following drink driving offences have been included in these figures:
- Drive whilst unfit through drink
