On Easter Sunday, David Warner, the ex-Australian cricketer, was convicted of mid-range drink-driving during a random breath test and was penalised, with the court ordering the installation of an interlock device.

The court acknowledged the significant media attention and the economic consequences Warner might face.

The judge emphasised deterrence, noting that children were present in the vehicle.
