Police officers found the car wedged on bollards down Audley Avenue, opposite Burton Borough School.

The suspect failed a breathalyser test and blew a reading of 73 just before midnight on Monday.

Telford Patrol tweeted the incident just hours after warning people not to drink drive following England's World Cup opener against Tunisia.
