Hide AdHerbert, 21, of Festus Street, told Mansfield magistrates: “I made a big mistake. I have let a few people down. I won’t do it again.”
On Friday, he was banned for 20 months, but he was offered a drink driver’s rehabilitation course which will reduce the disaqualification by 152 days if completed before January 2020.
He was fined £276, and ordered to pay £85 costs and a £30 government surcharge.
