A man has been given six points and told to pay court costs of hundreds of pounds after failing to identify a driver alleged to be guilty of a speeding offence.
Stephen Mark Jones, aged 28, of Dalesbury, Craven Arms, pleaded guilty to failing to give Avon and Somerset Police the name of a driver of a Ford alleged to have been driving at 39mph in a 30mph zone in Bristol on January 13, 2023.
