Belfast motorist did speed of 103mph because he 'didn't want to miss visiting time at a care home'
A Belfast motorist who hit a speed of 103mph said he was trying to get to a care home before the visiting time ended.
William Raymond Houston (53), of Clarendon Avenue, was detected in a 70mph zone on July 20 this year.
At Antrim Magistrates Court, sitting in Ballymena on Tuesday, the defendant was banned from driving for a month and was fined £150.
District Judge Nigel Broderick said there must be a deterrence to those who speed at over 100mph because if there is an accident the chances of serious if not fatal injury are increased.
