Serial drink-driver avoids jail 'for being a woman'

A serial drunk driver who ploughed into three cars after drinking a bottle of wine was spared jail by a judge who said she should not be behind bars because she is a woman.

The judge said: "If Miss Parry was a man, there is no question it would have been straight down the stairs, because this is a shocking case of dangerous driving against a background of two previous convictions for excess alcohol."

• Hit three vehicles before crashing into ditch where her car burst into flames.
• Parry had 102mcg of alcohol in 100ml of breath - almost three times the legal limit of 35mcg.
• already had two previous convictions for drink driving

Personally, I think the judge herself should go to prison the moment that woman has another drink.
