When a 21-year-old man was stopped while driving in Banbridge it was discovered his insurance had been cancelled because a direct debit had not been paid.
Linas Paulauskas, Newcastle Road, Kilkeel, was fined £200 last Thursday at Banbridge Magistrates Court for driving while uninsured on August 19 this year.
He was also given six points and ordered to pay a £15 offender’s levy.
