Mark Richard Evans, aged 42, of Chiltern Gardens, Dawley, told magistrates that he had voluntarily given up getting behind the wheel after realising that he should have been banned when he was handed 10 points for drink-driving last August.

It transpired that Evans already had seven points on his licence for two speeding offences in 2021. Totting up driving bans start if someone accumulates 12 points or more.
