Bradley appeared before Lewes Crown Court on September 12 where he admitted dangerous driving and failing to provide a specimen of blood for analysis when suspected of being over the legal limit for alcohol or a prescribed drug.
The unemployed 27-year-old, of Eastbourne Road, Polegate, was sentenced to 14 months in prison. He was disqualified from driving for three years.
Speaking after the case, Sergeant Vicki Rees said: “Bradley’s driving was reckless and he put himself, our officers and other road users at high risk of harm.
“We know that speeding and also driving while intoxicated through drink or drugs are among the main reasons why people are killed or seriously injured.
“We are pleased that a dangerous driver has been taken off our streets and our roads."
