A suspected drink driver was allegedly more than twice the legal drink drive limit after a crash on the A141.
Police arrested the driver of a white Citroen which had rolled and left the carriageway along the Chatteris bypass.

No other vehicles were involved and the driver was taken to hospital.
A post on the Policing Fenland Facebook page said: “The driver of the vehicle failed the road side breath test and provided a reading of 86ugs.”
The legal limit is 35.
