Thirty-one people have been convicted of drink and drug-driving offences following an illegal gathering in Steyning in June of last year.
Police arrested around 90 people trying to flee the scene of the unlicensed music event overnight on the 27th and 28th of June.
They intercepted motorists making off along Bostal Road and surrounding areas.
Of these, 31 have so far been convicted in court, and a number of others are awaiting dates with magistrates as the investigation continues.
Police have named all 31 on their website - only one was from Sussex (Sompting) whereas the rest had driven from as far as London, Bedfordshire, Somerset, Devon and Hampshire.
Chief Inspector Michael Hodder, of the Surrey and Sussex Roads Policing Unit, said:
“I find it unbelievable that despite repeated warnings issued by ourselves and other forces around the country, a number of people still think it is acceptable to get behind the wheel of a vehicle while under the influence of drink or drugs.
“These people are not only risking their own lives, they are also risking the lives of other innocent road users.
“Given the sheer number of drink and drug-drivers in Steyning that evening, it’s extremely fortunate no one was killed or seriously injured on our roads. But it only takes one person to take a life.
“It is particularly concerning that the vast majority of attendees had come from Devon, Somerset, Wales and beyond, and were prepared to travel great distances while high on drink or drugs.
“I’d like to commend the swift response of our Roads Policing Unit and Neighbourhood Response Teams who worked together to cut off the roads surrounding the site. This ensured we were able to detain dozens of offenders and bring them to justice.”
