Drink driver banned after crashing into A428 road closure
Rafal Jakubisiak was three times over the legal limit
A drink driver who crashed through road closure signs at the Caxton Gibbet roundabout on the A428 has been banned from driving for over two years.
Rafal Jakubisiak, 59, drove into the closure on 3rd November 2025, prompting Highways Agency workers to call police as they suspected he was drunk.
Officers arrived at the scene and Jakubisiak blew 120 at the roadside, more than three times the legal limit, but refused to provide a further evidential sample in custody.
Appearing at Cambridge Magistrates’ Court on 26th January 2026, Jakubisiak pleaded guilty to failing to provide a specimen for analysis. He was sentenced to eight weeks in prison, suspended for 12 months, and disqualified from driving for 29 months.
PC Oliver Thomas, who investigated the case, said: “Jakubisiak was more than three times the drink drive limit and still got behind the wheel.
“From the reports of Highways Agency workers, it’s clear Jakubisiak was not fit to do anything, let alone drive, and the risk he posed to other road users was unacceptable.”
The police operate a confidential hotline at 0800 032 0845, available 24/7, for reporting suspicions of drink or drug driving.
