A PAIR of Tweed learner drivers drove drunk and unaccompanied, crashing their cars and careening off the road in two separate incidents.

Felix Mather Bland, 32, from Murwillumbah and Joshua Dalton Ferguson, 22, from Crystal Creek, appeared before Murwillumbah Court on Wednesday, pleading guilty to high-range drink driving and driving without a supervising driver.

Ferguson began drinking at 8.30pm on November 12, consuming six glasses of rum, three vodkas and five schooners of full-strength beer.

He was driving along a rain-soaked Hall Dr, Murwillumbah at 11.34pm before crossing onto the wrong side of the road, colliding with the front of a parked car.

Ferguson did not stop, continuing down the road and hitting another parked car before leaving the road and plummeting off a 3m embankment.

Police arrived on scene and noticed Ferguson was unsteady on his feet, unable to walk straight, his eyes were bloodshot and his face was flushed.

Officers took Ferguson to Murwillumbah Police Station, where he returned a high breath alcohol reading of 0.198.

His licence was immediately suspended due to the high-range reading.

Meanwhile, in separate incident at 2.30pm on November 5, Bland drank eight VB stubbies without eating before hopping in his car at 12.30pm the next day.

Driving down Kyogle Rd, Murwillumbah, towards Eungella, Bland lost control on approach to an intersection, slid off the left side of the road and travelled at speed down an embankment and into a paddock.

Bland narrowly missed a creek and the racket alerted nearby residents, who called police.

Unsteady on his feet and slurring his speech, Bland was breath tested by officers at 1.47am, returning a reading of 0.168 breath alcohol content.

His licence was suspended immediately.

In court Ferguson had no excuse for the incident, but said he was working to break an amphetamine addiction affecting his behaviour.

Magistrate Michael Dakin referred to Ferguson's crimes as "a gross abandonment of responsibility", but did concede that Ferguson had "developed insight" and was working to better himself.

Bland told the magistrate he had fought with his girlfriend before the incident and was in a bad state of mind, but did not present the information as an excuse.

Magistrate Dakin said the crime was serious, but took into account Bland's remorse, his good record and his mental state at the time of the incident.

Both drivers were disqualified from driving for three years, with Bland placed on a one-year good behaviour bond and Ferguson placed on a two-year bond.
