A lawyer who refused to give a sample of breath after the police stopped her Range Rover on the site that she had just had that cosmetic surgery was “afraid that you would fail the test,” Judge told her yesterday.
Rachel Tansey, 44, initially refused to use a Breathalyser and said she had done cosmetic surgery on her lips the day before, a court heard.
The 'spicy' mother of three would also not do a blood test based on the fact that she had phobia of needles.
She was found guilty of not providing a copy last month after a district judge said that her account “is not missing credibility.”
District judge James Hatton substantiate her and said she had tried to “trace back” to say that she had “done her lips” because of the “conclusion” that a needle had been used.
He warned her that she was confronted with a possible prison sentence.
But yesterday, Tansey wiped tears away when another judge imposed a community order and a two -year driving ban.
The incident took place in the early hours of April 20, 2023 when Tansey was reported to 'weave around' a bypass at 20 MPH near her £ 1.4 million mansion in Formby, Merseyside.

When the police asked the lawyer to give an Adem sample, she only partially got her lips around the tube and the day before called the cosmetic treatment, Sefton heard Magistrates Court.
“I do my utmost,” she told them.
'It's like asking someone to jump on after a abdominal wall correction. I can't. '
Tansey denied misconduct and insisted that she had only driven slowly because she had dropped a chicken wrap and searched for mouthwash.

Saying that she “deliberately refused to give a sample,” he added: “The only correct conclusion that I can draw is that you worried that you would fail the test.”
It was therefore impossible to say whether or not she had been above the limit of the drink -drift, he added.
The judge imposed a 12 -month community order and ordered it to pay prosecution costs and allowance of a total of £ 764.
He also forbade her to ride for two years and ordered her to do 130 hours of unpaid work.
Tansey, who wore a long black dress and black ankle boots, wiped tears away as she was convicted.
Jack Cooper, who represented Tansey, previously said she had no previous convictions.
He said she accepted that she was 'spicy' with the police and felt 'embarrassed' to be in the dock, but had not felt 'unsuitable for driving'.
The company that operated Tansey Hooters in Liverpool went into liquidation last year.
