Discuss Dagdara’s criminal liability for the offence of criminal damage, taking into account potential application of the rule on intoxication.

Dagdara takes one tablet but does not read the accompanying leaflet which says “Ease It” should not be used in conjunction with alcohol. She wakes up in the night feeling very confused and disoriented. Looking through the window she sees her car parked outside in the driveway.

Still in her dressing gown, Dagdara leaves the room and once out of the cottage approaches the car with the vague idea of wanting to go home. She gets in and starts driving; however, her handling of the car is erratic and she drives without an apparent sense of direction.

A short distance from the cottage Dagdara crashes into a wooden side gate to one of the houses of a nearby village. As a result of the crash one of the gate’s posts is broken and the hinges are severely bent. Dagdara is uninjured but loses consciousness, and when found by her friends a few hours later, is unsure of her surroundings and remembers nothing of the car ride.
