The driver was stopped at the Imaduwa entrance and was asked by the policeman on duty if he was drunk.

The driver responds saying yes that he was drunk and that he had just arrived after having drinks with the OIC.

The driver then telephones the OIC and says that he has been stopped at the Imaduwa entrance and gives the telephone to the policeman.
