Two men will face court after being detected high-range drink driving within 15 minutes of each other at Tamworth at the weekend.
About 7.40pm on Sunday (28 October 2018), police stopped a silver Mitsubishi Lancer sedan on Duri Road, South Tamworth.
The driver, a 21-year-old man and holder of a provisional licence, was arrested after a positive roadside breath test.
He returned an alleged subsequent breath analysis reading of 0.177 and was charged with High Range PCA, NSW Police say.
The man's licence was suspended and he is due to appear at Tamworth Local Court on 19 November 2018.
About 15 minutes later, police stopped the same car on Duri Road, South Tamworth, after it was observed driving with no taillights.
A different driver, also a 21-year-old man, was arrested after he returned a positive roadside breath test. He subsequently returned an alleged breath analysis reading of 0.162 at Tamworth Police Station.
Further checks revealed his provisional 2 licence was disqualified until October 2022.
He was charged with High Range PCA (second subsequent offence) and drive while disqualified.
The man was granted conditional bail and will appear at Tamworth Local Court on Monday 19 November 2018.
