Man who took drugs after losing his job is banned from the road and told to do unpaid work
A man who took cannabis and cocaine after losing his job has been handed a 17-month driving ban and told to carry out 50 hours of unpaid work.
Greg Oliver, aged 33, of Wrekin Avenue, Newport, was stopped by a police constable while he was driving a Fiat Punto on the A518 New Trench Road, Donnington, on October 24, 2023.
A saliva test at the roadside showed he had drugs in his system so he was taken into custody and a blood test confirmed the presence of cannabis, cocaine and the cocaine derivative BZE.
