A 24-year-old man has been jailed after he was caught drink-driving just days after being banned from the roads for the same crime.
Paulius Burlingaitis was arrested in December after officers stopped his car in Pegler Way, Crawley, when checks on the police database suggested it was being driven without insurance.
Burlingaitis is the first person to be jailed after being arrested as part of Sussex Police’s crackdown on drink and drug drivers in December last year.
You can text officers on 65999 with the details of people you suspect of drink or drug driving, along with their car make and registration number.

Surrey County Council has said that 4,500 tonnes of furniture which could still be used are thrown away in the county each year.
Twenty five thousand pieces of furniture that were thrown out last year would stretch around Box HIll 10 times.
To encourage the reuse of more furniture, Surrey County Council is supporting the Surrey Reuse Network (SRN). Made up of local charities, the SRN finds new homes for donated furniture and kitchen appliances by selling them at affordable prices.
For locations, to arrange a collection and more information about the SRN, call 0800 082 0180 or visit http://www.surreyreusenetwork.org.uk.
A challenge set by Surrey County Council to fill 500 apprentice places in a year has smashed its target two months early.
Nearly 540 young people have landed apprentice roles since last April as part of three schemes run by the council.
More than 410 apprentices have been hired by businesses through a cash incentive initiative and the council took on a further 100 young people and contractors filled around 25 places.
The apprenticeship drive is part of the council’s push to stimulate economic growth; it has also seen the number of young people in the county not in education, employment or training cut by more than half.
