FIGURES have been released showing the extent of drink driving in Bromley over the Christmas period.
A total of 26 people were arrested in the borough after failing a breath test.
Twelve of those arrested were aged 25 and under.
Eight of the breath tests were carried out after car crashes.
Bromley police's head of operational policing Chief Inspector Malcolm Noone said: "Despite all of the messages that drinking and driving is dangerous and illegal, some people still do not get the point and once again we have made a number of arrests over the Christmas period.
"Unfortunately it seems that for the sake of a few drinks some people are still prepared to risk losing their licence, their job and a prison sentence."
