Robert Senderowski, 45, briefly appeared before the ACT Magistrates Court on Friday on charges of drink-driving and driving while disqualified.
Magistrate Robert Cook adjourned the matter until January so Senderowski could seek legal advice.
If found guilty, it would be the sixth time Senderowski has been convicted for getting behind the wheel while under the influence.
Before the court appearance, police said in a statement that officers had been conducting mobile patrols in Red Hill about 11.30am on Thursday when they flagged down by a motorist who told them of a white car driving recklessly near the shops.
Police allegedly found Senderowski and administered a roadside breath test, which returned a positive screening.
They said they took him to Woden Police Station, where he returned a blood alcohol concentration reading of 0.267 - more than five times the legal limit.
But Senderowski had no licence, as it was disqualified as a result of a previous drink-drive conviction, meaning he was subject to blood alcohol concentration limit of 0.00.
