Shrewsbury man who did not have enough puff for breath test is banned from driving
A Shrewsbury man who didn't have enough puff for a police station breath test has been banned from driving for failing to provide a specimen.
Telford Magistrates Court heard that there was no medical reason for Desmond Richards not to provide it after he tried and failed eight times.
Richards, aged 63, of Allerton Road, Shrewsbury, accepted his fate when he pleaded guilty to the offence on August 7 before the magistrates on Wednesday.
Prosecutor Sara Beddow said Richards was seen driving "significantly below the speed limit" at midnight in Sundorne Avenue, Shrewsbury.
