Police were bowled over when they discovered a 75-year-old woman, who had driven the wrong way around a roundabout in Hastings, had a blood alcohol reading of more than double the legal limit.

A concerned motorist alerted police to the woman after she was observed driving erratically in the Hastings area this afternoon.

Police located her on the wrong side of a roundabout on Frankston – Flinders Road and High Street about 5pm.

The Hastings woman told police she had been drinking at a race day function at her favourite bowls club.

She later recorded a blood alcohol reading of 0.122 per cent.

She was fined $661 and her licence was immediately cancelled for 12 months.
