A MAN was arrested after a car was spotted being driven erratically along the A27.
Andrzej Marciniak, 52, a builder, of Lampert Place, Lewes, was found to be almost five times over the drink drive limit when stopped by police.
A member of the public called Sussex Police at about 11.20am on January 12 to report the car in front was swerving across lanes of traffic on the A27 between Brighton and Lewes.
The vehicle travelled through Lewes town centre before it was located by officers in Lampert Place.
The driver failed a roadside breath test and was taken to Eastbourne custody centre where he blew a reading of 159 microgrammes of alcohol per 100 millilitres of breath.
Marciniak will appear at Brighton Magistrates Court on January 30.
