AN ALLEGED drink driver at over five times the limit has been busted after she allegedly rear-ended another car stopped at red light.
Kawana police officer-in-charge Mark Cordwell told the Daily at 10.30pm on Saturday, officers were called to the scene of a traffic incident at Nicklin Way, Buddina.
A Land Rover Discovery had allegedly crashed into the rear of a vehicle which had stopped at a red light.
"On arrival, police located the (alleged) driver of the Land Rover, a 30-year-old Wurtulla woman and as a result was taken to the Maroochydore Police Station for the purpose of a breath test and allegedly returned a reading of 0.262," Sen-Sgt Cordwell said.
A Queensland Police Service spokeswoman said the crash was minor and no injuries were sustained.
The woman was arrested and charged at the Maroochydore watchhouse with driving a motor vehicle while under the influence of liquor.
She was released on bail to appear in the Maroochydore Magistrates Court on August 17.
