Boozed-up driver turns himself in accidentally

A drunk driver didn’t get far when he tried to flee the scene after putting his car through four barriers on Monivong Boulevard on Monday.

Witnesses said that the tipsy speedster didn’t appear to learn his lesson after the crash and tried to accelerate away to avoid legal trouble.

Unluckily, he drove right into a traffic police checkpoint and was promptly arrested.
