A member of public flagged down a passing police car to raise concern over Sledge's driving.
Officers from the Rural Crime Action Team followed Sledge and found him parked up at a housing estate.
Sledge, from Salisbury, was breathalysed at the roadside and blew 109 - which is three times the legal limit of 35 microgrammes per 100 millilitres of breath.
In custody, the 59-year-old admitted to officers that he had drunk 'nearly a bottle of wine' and gave another breathalyser reading of 78.
On April 18 Sledge pleaded guilty to drink driving and was disqualified from driving for 17 months at Cambridge Magistrates' Court.
He was also ordered to pay a £784 fine.

PC Francesca Lynch, who investigated, said: 'Thanks to a member of the public, this individual now knows the consequences of drink driving.
'After consuming almost a bottle of wine, he is lucky he didn't harm the many pedestrians and road users, or himself.
'There is no excuse for drink driving and we urge anyone who knows a drink driver to report it to us.'
