QT's name and shame: This week's drink drivers

EVERY week The QT publishes the names of drink-drivers who have been in court in Ipswich over the past week.

Learner four times the limit

AFTER drinking throughout Australia Day last year crashing his car into a retaining wall at a party wasn't enough to convince a serial drink-driver to stay off the road.

Bruce Allen Baldwin, 30, was driving an overloaded, unregistered and uninsured ute, while he only had a learner's permit and was more than four times the legal limit.

After drinking through the day on January 26, 2013, Baldwin overloaded his ute to drive to a Hatton Vale party. He was swerving through traffic and speeding on the Warrego Hwy.

Baldwin, who was out of jail on parole having been imprisoned for torture, arrived at a party where he continued to drink. When one of the passengers wanted to leave, the four piled back into the ute and Baldwin again got behind the wheel. He straight away drove the car into a retaining wall.
