A farmer caught driving a Land Rover Discovery at 116 miles per hour on a motorway near Kinross has been allowed to keep his licence after his solicitor insisted he needed it for his work.
Bruce Keillor was busted by police officers who were carrying out static checks on other vehicles when he sped past them on the M90 Edinburgh to Perth road near Gairneybridge at around 8.50pm.
Fiscal depute Elizabeth Hodgson told Perth Sheriff Court the constables were parked on a flyover when Keillor whizzed past them doing 116 mph on a 70 mph stretch.
