"It may be hard to believe but calls and incidents over the last few days have meant we haven’t had a chance to post about the other drink drivers that have been caught.
"There is clearly a serious problem in F District with selfish drink drivers.
"We are working round the clock to remove these individuals. We’re now at the point were we are catching one on a daily basis, there are often days we are getting more than one.
