Driver allegedly drunk with child in car

A Victorian woman has lost her licence for 12 months after allegedly driving at more than twice the legal blood alcohol limit with a child in the car.

Police were alerted when the 49-year-old was seen behind the wheel with one child on board and on her way to collect her teenage daughter from school at Sunbury, northeast of Melbourne, on Thursday afternoon.

Officers went to a nearby address and found the woman, who allegedly returned a alcohol reading of 0.125.
