AN average of nearly 100 drivers a day were caught drink-driving in the past three years, new figures show.

Road safety charity IAM RoadSmart, which obtained the data, said it demonstrates the need for “a shift in mindset” among drivers.

It found 108,000 motorists in Britain received drink-drive endorsements on their licence between 2022 and 2024.

That is an average of 99 per day.

Drivers aged 25-39 were the worst offenders, with 48,000 caught. That was followed by those aged 40-65 (40,000 caught) and 17-24 (15,000 caught).

Just 3,000 drivers older than 65 were convicted of drink-driving during the same period.
