A British driver was so affected by alcohol that he did not realise his car had shed a front wheel after he collided with a wall. The man drove for around 1.6km after hitting the wall, with sparks trailing behind his car and risking igniting the vehicle. He drove the car 13km from his home to the centre of a nearby town, after consuming a bottle of wine for reasons that have not been fully explained. On reaching his destination, he parked his battered 3068 Seat car and staggered across the road where he was promptly arrested by officers who had been called to the scene. Dressed in pyjamas at the time of his arrest, he seemed somewhat dazed according to the officers and he later explained that he was unable to remember anything about his journey. He was banned from driving for a year and had to pay a hefty fine.
