Former Australia Test cricketer David Warner will accept responsibility for a drink-driving offence, his lawyer says. The lawyer describes Warner’s decision as “reckless”, “foolish” and “wrong”, saying it was a poor choice to get behind the wheel after drinking. Reports state Warner consumed three glasses of wine before driving, and the charge is described as a mid-range drink-driving matter. The lawyer also says Warner deeply regrets the incident and is willing to face the consequences like any other citizen. BBC Sport similarly reports that Warner will “accept responsibility” following the charge made last month, indicating he is not disputing wrongdoing. ABC Australia and the BBC focus on Warner’s decision to take responsibility through his legal representative, while Times of India adds detail about the amount he drank and emphasizes that he expects to go through the normal process. All accounts indicate Warner’s position is acceptance of responsibility and regret for his conduct following the drink-driving charge.
