The driver was stopped by police who breathalysed her
A woman was found to be four times over the drink-driving limit while driving with a child on a motorway, police say.
Cheshire Police said they received "numerous reports from members of the public" while she was driving a silver BMW on the M6 near Knutsford at about 11:00 BST on Saturday.
The 43-year-old was eventually stopped by police who breathalysed her.
They arrested her on suspicion of drink driving and appealed for anyone with information to contact them.
She registered 164 micrograms of alcohol per 100 millilitres of breath, police said.
The legal alcohol limit for driving in England, Wales and Northern Ireland is 80 milligrams of alcohol per 100 millilitres of blood or 35 micrograms of alcohol per 100 millilitres of breath.
Correction - 28 August 2022: An earlier version of the story incorrectly stated how many times the woman was over the limit, based on information from Cheshire Police.
