Woman’s insurance payment ‘bounced’

Gemma Coghill, Garrymore, Craigavon, was charged with driving without insurance on May 18 this year.

She was detected at Garrymore.

Entering a plea of her behalf defence solicitor, Siun Downey, said her client already had six points on her licence for a similar offence.

She explained that there wasn’t enough money in the defendant’s account and the insurance payment bounced.

“She understands there is a certain inevitability about the matter,” added Miss Downey.

District Judge, Mrs Bernie Kelly, imposed a fine of £350 along with six points and ordered her to pay a £15 offender’s levy.

On the tot up system she banned Coghill from driving for six months.
