Hugh Harper, Kinallen Road, Dromara, admitted permitting no insurance on October 19 this year.

As well as the one year ban he was fined £350 and ordered to pay a £15 offender’s levy. At approximately 12.15pm police stopped a vehicle in Flush Place, Lurgan. The defendant, who owned the vehicle, was a front seat passenger.

Harper had appeared at Lisburn court the previous Monday and was given probation and a two year disqualification.

Imposing the one year ban Deputy District Judge Joe Rice ruled it should run concurrently with the two year term.
