Six Watford drink drivers have been brought before magistrates this month.
These residents were sentenced for driving or being in charge of a motor vehicle while their alcohol level was above the limit.
In England, Wales, and Northern Ireland the drink drive limit is 35 micrograms per 100 millilitres of breath, but these motorists blew up to 137 micrograms.
See the court list below as well as how many micrograms of alcohol were in 100 millilitres of their breath when they gave a sample:
