Kiritapu Allan has been fired as a Minister after being charged with reckless driving, resisting arrest and driving in breach of alcohol limits last night. Update: The Police now say that Allan has been charged with careless driving not reckless driving. Careless use is a fine only offence, reckless driving can involve a jail sentence. And the second charge was refusing to accompany not resisting arrest. Further update: It appears that the source of the misdescription may have been Allan herself.
