A 27-year-old Warilla man was caught twice on Sunday night and Monday morning .. the first time with a reading of 0.805 .. and the second with a reading of 0.115.

And a 53 year old Tocumwal man was caught when he made a right hand turn from the far left hand side of the road in front of an unmarked police car .. with police alleging he wasn't wearing a seat belt .. and also failed a breath test.
