Two drivers were caught drink-driving on Saturday night - both behind the wheel of the same vehicle.

The first incident was at 11pm when police stopped the driver of a ute being driven through Greymouth.

Police found the driver had been drinking and he was taken back to the police station and processed for drink-driving.

Five minutes later the same vehicle was spotted being driven around. It was stopped again and another driver, a 20-year-old man, was breath-tested.

He was one and a half times over the legal limit.

He was suspended from driving for 28 days. Both drivers will appear in Greymouth District Court next month.
