When nurse Faye Gregson decided to share an intimate moment with her boyfriend , privacy wasn ’ t exactly utmost in her mind . Not only did her romantic liaison take place in the front seat of her Audi , but she was also parked in the middle of a zebra crossing . And to top it all off , she left her hazard lights flashing . Faye Gregson , 26 , from Preston , was arrested by police after they found her car parked at an angle on a zebra crossing on Christmas Eve while she was straddling her boyfriend in the passenger seat . The 26-year-old , who was nearly twice the drink-drive limit , was arrested after police caught her straddling her boyfriend in the passenger seat . Yesterday , she was fined £300 and begged a judge not to take her licence , saying : ‘ I ’ m really sorry . It won ’ t happen again. ’ A court heard she had stopped in the middle of the road in Blackpool at around 2.30am on Christmas Eve before clambering on top of her boyfriend . Gregson , whose favourite books include Fifty Shades of Grey , had parked her black Audi at an angle on the crossing but put her hazard lights on to warn other drivers . The keen netball player at first denied she had been drinking and tried to get out of a breathalyser test by claiming that she had a cold , Blackpool Magistrates Court heard . But officers carried out the test anyway , describing her as ‘ smelling of alcohol ’ and having glazed eyes . Prosecutor Alison Quanbrough told the court they had spotted her because of her flashing hazard lights . Gregson initially denied being drunk , saying she had just finished a 15-hour shift at Preston hospital . She refused a breath test , saying she had a cold , but a urine test showed she was twice the drink-drive limit . ‘ She was straddling a male in the passenger seat , ’ said Mrs Quanbrough . ‘ When she saw the police she got off the male . She then got into the driver ’ s seat and put on the seatbelt. ’ Officers asked Gregson to step out of the car and found she was unsteady on her feet . But she said she had not been drinking , and claimed to have just finished a 15-hour shift at the Royal Preston Hospital , where she works . Gregson was taken to a police station where she refused to be breathalysed and was given a urine test instead . It showed she had 205 milligrammes of alcohol in her body . The maximum allowed by law is 107 . Gregson , who had no previous convictions , later admitted being in charge of the car while over the limit . She apologised and pleaded with the court to let her keep her licence , saying : ‘ I need my car to get to work at hospital as I work shifts. ’ Magistrates agreed and instead ordered ten points to be added to her licence . Gregson , from Preston , was also told to pay £85 costs and a £30 victims ’ surcharge . On her Facebook profile she lists Fifty Shades of Grey as one of her favourite books alongside What I Wish I Knew About Nursing . Pictures taken on Christmas Eve show her partying with her friends . Drivers can be prosecuted for being ‘ in charge ’ of a vehicle while over the alcohol limit . The offence is used when drunk people are caught either getting into or having just stopped their cars . They can be charged even if they are in the passenger seat if police think they were recently driving , as in Gregson ’ s case .
