When she was pulled over officers from the Roads Policing Unit discovered it was the unfortunate driver's birthday and she brazenly told them she'd spent a pre-birthday "weekend smashing coke". After completing a roadside drug wipe, which determined that she was driving under the influence of both cocaine and cannabis, the driver was taken to spend the rest of their birthday in police custody. In the full tweet, a spokesperson for the force said: "Happy Birthday today to the driver of this car, captured travelling at 72mph on a 50mph road. "After a pre-birthday 'weekend smashing coke' (her words) she failed the drug wipe too!! Wiltshire Police consider speeding and drug driving to be two of their 'fatal five', along with using a mobile phone, not wearing a seatbelt and drink driving.
