Portglenone woman admitted taking cannabis after PSNI spotted BMW veering across the road
Police received a report a motorist had been "smoking cannabis" and was then driving a BMW, a court has heard.
Ballymena Magistrates’ Court was told that when officers followed the vehicle it was veering across white lines.
Nicola Shaw, aged 39, of Chesney Crescent in Portglenone, admitted a charge of driving whilst unfit through drink or drugs on March 22 this year on the Randalstown Road, Antrim.
When police stopped her she said she had been "taking cannabis in the morning" and was addicted to the drug.
Cannabis was found in a blood sample, the court heard.
A defence solicitor said the defendant regretted the offence.
The defendant was banned from driving for a year and fined £300.
