Ignoring 'no entry' signs on a road led American Air Force mechanic Jordan Simmons to court for drink-driving.
Simmons, 25, was more than double the legal alcohol limit when police stopped him in Ely.
After being pulled over in Market Street at 11.30pm on October 8, he admitted to police that he had been drinking.
“He realises it was silly and is paying the consequences.” Magistrates disqualified Simmons from driving for 18 months and fined him £360.
Mary Rone, presiding magistrate, said: “Drink- driving is certainly not looked upon favourably in this country. The penalties we imposed reflect that.”
Simmons was ordered to pay £85 court costs.
