Earlier this year (February) I received one year probation and lost my licence for 2 years for a fail to stop offence in Queensland.

I was recently caught driving while disqualified and over the no alcohol limit (approx. 0.03BAC)

My traffic history includes another drink driving offence (over low alcohol limit approx. 0.05BAC) within the past five years (two years ago) and multiple minor traffic offences.

My other criminal history is only minor - Obstruct or Assault Police Officer & Public Nuisance X2

What sort of penalty am I likely to receive?

At a minimum your 2 year disqualification will restart.

Anything from a suspended sentence to a full custodial sentence.
