twice the legal amount of alcohol in his blood.

Senior Magistrate Will Francis allowed 20-year-old Leonard Burrows to keep his intermediate truck licence -- but banned him from driving auxiliary cycles.

Burrows, of Sommersall Road, Smith's Parish, admiited in Magistrates' Court to driving with 160 milligrams of alcohol in 100 millilitres of blood on May 23.

Prosecutor Sgt. Phil Taylor told the court that just before midnight, Police officers in St. George's spotted Burrows weaving from side to side on a black livery cycle.

He was pulled over and asked if he had been drinking. Smelling liquor on his breath, the officers asked Burrows whether he had been drinking.

Burrows said: "Yeah, I had a couple of Heinekens.'' After being taken to the St. George's Police Station, it was discovered that Burrows had 160 milligrams of alcohol in his blood -- exactly twice the legal limit.

Burrows asked Mr. Francis if he could keep his licence to drive intermediate vehicles as he was working as a courier for DHL.

Mr. Francis fined Burrows $500 and banned him from riding auxiliary cycles for two years.
