Two drivers lost their licences for drink driving-related offences involving the same vehicle overnight.
Police were called to Gilbert Place, Adelaide, following reports of a disturbance about 10.15pm on Saturday 24 October.
A male driver and female passenger got out of a Ford ute and allegedly began pushing people who were lined up outside a licensed premises. They then got back into the ute, with the woman behind the wheel, and allegedly reversed, narrowly missing a pedestrian before driving away.
Police later located the vehicle in Maylands.
The driver, a 42-year-old Maylands woman, allegedly refused to submit to a breath analysis test and was issued with a 12-month immediate loss of licence. She was arrested and charged with disorderly behaviour, driving offences and failing to submit to a breath analysis.
The 39-year-old Maylands man, who police will allege was captured on CCTV driving the ute in Gilbert Place, returned a blood alcohol reading of 0.148. He was arrested and charged with drink driving, disorderly behaviour and hindering police. He was issued with a six-month immediate loss of licence.
Both were bailed to appear in the Adelaide Magistrates Court on 11 December.
The Ford ute was impounded for 28 days.
