Julia Marshall, 41, faced the Wangaratta Magistrates Court on Monday after being pulled over in an unregistered Toyota at Killawarra on February 14, 2021.
She had been banned from driving a month earlier for a drug-related offence, and returned a reading of .064.
"I should know better," Marshall told magistrate Anne Goldsborough.
