Georgia Felicity Roberts from Ewloe was given an interim driving ban and committed to crown court for sentence
A drug driver with two young children in the car was found to be 30 times the limit for a metabolite of cocaine.
Georgia Felicity Roberts was said to be drowsy when she was stopped by police.
The 26-year-old, of Crossways, Ewloe, admitted driving with 26 microgrammes of cocaine in her blood compared to the legal limit of 10.
But she admitted having a reading of 1,504 microgrammes of benzoylecgonine, a metabolite of cocaine, compared to the legal limit of 50.
Six days earlier she had been given a 22-month prison sentence suspended for two years for being concerned in the supply of cocaine and heroin.
Flintshire magistrates yesterday imposed an interim driving ban and Roberts’ case was committed to crown court for sentence.
Prosecutor Rhian Jackson said police stopped a Vauxhall Zaphira on the A549 Mold Road at Buckley on November 15 when an automatic number plate recognition system showed it was not insured.
Roberts was behind the wheel, said that she had let the insurance lapse because she was short of money, and she appeared drowsy.
There were two young children under the age of four in the car at the time, and the vehicle was seized by police.
Roberts was subjected to a road side drug test which registered positive for cocaine and she was arrested.
In custody, she provided a blood test, and Mrs Jackson said it was a matter of concern that she was driving with
such a high reading of the cocaine metabolite when there were children in the car. Magistrates ordered a pre-sentence report.
