Former Aussie cricket star David Warner faces a $1500 fine and must install an interlock device in his car after being caught drink-driving with a blood alcohol level over double the legal limit—while kids were in the vehicle. He tried to swap seats with a passenger when pulled over, but the judge emphasized the seriousness of the offense, especially given the presence of children. Despite his lawyer’s argument that media scrutiny is punishment enough, the court dismissed it, noting Warner’s public role in anti-drink-driving campaigns makes this particularly ironic. Cricket NSW has pledged to educate all players on safe driving, highlighting the high stakes for a once-celebrated sports icon.
