Newtownabbey motorist was detected doing 104mph

A Newtownabbey motorist hit a speed of 104mph.

Ross Alexander Barclay (40), of Dillons Avenue, was detected in a 70mph zone on December 30 last year.

Antrim Magistrates Court, sitting in Ballymena, was told it happened at a "motorway".

A defence solicitor said the defendant is a regional manager who travels 45,000 miles a year.

District Judge Peter Magill said "104 is just too high a speed" and banned the defendant from driving for a month and fined him £500.
