Marius Ciprian Maier entered a guilty plea when he appeared before magistrates in Hereford on May 1.
The court heard from prosecutor Lauren Millichip that the 47-year-old had been caught behind the wheel of a silver Vauxhall Astra on the A4172 in Ledbury while over the limit on March 10.
An evidential breath test revealed he had 105 microgrammes (mg) of alcohol in 100 millilitres of breath. This exceeded the prescribed legal limit, which is 35 mg.
