SINGAPORE - A doctor who drank alcohol at a gathering in Sentosa arranged for someone else to drive his car home, but went against the traffic in the carpark while driving to a pick-up point.
He was jailed for 10 days and fined $5,000 on Tuesday after he pleaded guilty to one count of drink driving and one charge of driving without due care and attention. He was also disqualified from holding or obtaining all classes of driving licences for three years. To do that, he had to drive his car out of the carpark. But he drove against traffic for about 65m towards the entrance instead of the exit, despite several signs indicating he was going the wrong way.
DPP Lim noted that even though Tan has no criminal record, he had three previous compounded traffic offences, including beating a red light, speeding and inconsiderate driving.
