Case Studies For Penrith Drink Driving Defence Matters
Our traffic defence team takes a practical, evidence-led approach. We check the reading, timing, police procedure, licence history, work impact, need for treatment, and any material that may support a non-conviction outcome or reduced penalty.
Mid-Range Drink Driving: Licence And Employment Preserved
The client was charged with mid-range drink driving and worked full-time as a truck driver. A conviction would have led to disqualification and an interlock order, making daily work impossible because he drove different trucks. We prepared references, an apology, employment evidence and traffic course material. The court finalised the matter without conviction, allowing him to keep his licence and job. This protected his income and daily family responsibilities.
Mid-Range PCA: No Conviction After Christmas Function
The client was charged with mid-range drink driving after returning a 0.134 reading following a work Christmas party. We advised completion of traffic education and gathered strong supporting documents showing remorse, employment impact and insight. After submissions, the court did not record a conviction, allowing the client to retain his licence and continue working. The result avoided the most damaging licence consequences.

What NSW Law Says About Drink Driving
NSW drink driving offences are mainly dealt with under the Road Transport Act 2013 (NSW). Section 110 covers prescribed concentration of alcohol offences, including novice, special, low, middle, and high range PCA. Section 112 deals with driving under the influence of alcohol or another drug.
Penalties depend on the range, reading, licence type, prior offences, safety risk, plea, and mitigation. Outcomes may include fines, disqualification, interlock orders, community-based orders, or imprisonment in serious repeat matters. Careful preparation can make a significant difference to how the court understands your circumstances.
