Excess speed

A fine of £60 and a three point penalty were imposed on a Stranocum motorist who admitted a speeding summons when he appeared at North Antrim Magistrates Court last Wednesday.

Gary Jackson, whose address in court papers was given as Knockmore Road, Stranocum, committed the offence at Moyarget Road, Ballycastle, on November 5 last.

The court was told that defendant was recorded driving at 53 mph in a ‘30’ zone.

In court, defendant said he did not believe he was travelling at the speed suggested, but had no way of proving otherwise.
