flag A Flintshire woman was fined £430 for refusing a breath test after drinking wine, citing uncommunicated Bell’s palsy.

flag A 38-year-old Flintshire woman, Chelsey Walsh, was fined £430 and ordered to pay £572 in surcharges and costs after refusing to provide a breath sample during a March 2025 police stop in Holywell, where officers detected alcohol. flag She admitted to drinking wine with her father’s partner before driving, acknowledged it was inappropriate despite feeling no intoxication, and later cited Bell’s palsy as a reason for her inability to blow into the device, though she admitted failing to communicate it clearly. flag The court found her refusal "blatant and clear," criticized her judgment, and noted her nursing studies have been put on hold due to the conviction.
