    Officers were called to a collision in Milton Keynes after a 'paralytic' driver crashed into a lamp post with his son in the car.

    Police officers were called to a collision between a BMW and a lamp post in Conniburrow, Milton Keynes.

    Officers have described the driver, who only had a provisional licence, as 'absolutely paralytic' and arrested him after he failed a roadside breath test.

    In custody, the motorist blew 156 micrograms which is 5 times the drink drive limit of 35.

    Police say the driver also had his 7 year old son in the car at the time, who received minor injuries. 

    The driver has been charged and sent straight to court where officers say he will face a 'long ban' and 'possible prison sentence'.

    Social services have also been informed and will take necessary action regarding the child.
