Drink-driver refused breath test because of cosmetic surgery on lips

A barrister refused to take a roadside breath test after she was stopped on suspicion of drink-driving on the grounds she had just had on her lips.

Rachel Tansey, 44, was pulled over after reports that her silver Range Rover was ‘weaving around’ a bypass at 20mph.

But when police asked the lawyer to provide a breath sample, she only partially put her lips around the tube then cited cosmetic treatment the day before, a court heard.
