He said that Wiseman drove onto a petrol station forecourt but drove straight through and back out onto the road, at which he was stopped.
The 33-year-old gave a positive breath test and was arrested but refused to give a specimen at the police station.
Mr Clare said Wiseman had convictions for driving with excess alcohol in 2007 and 2010.
