A serial drink-driver - caught by police behind the wheel of her car in the West End's busy Oxford Street after another drinking session - sobbed in the dock as she was locked-up for three months.
Dee Dee Menta, 41, of Querrin Street, Fulham was banned from driving after a previous drinks conviction when cops pulled her over with three passengers in her BMW and discovered she was nearly twice the limit.
She pleaded guilty at City of London Magistrates' Court (pictured) to driving with excess alcohol in her breath, driving while disqualified and without insurance on February 17.
The court heard Menta had 66 microgrammes of alcohol in 100 millilitres of breath - the legal limit is 35.
The bench chairwoman told distraught Menta: "This showed a blatant disregard for previous court sentences."
The offence was her third alcohol-related conviction.
Menta was also disqualified from driving for three years and ten months.
