A business owner who was driving at more than 90mph in a 60mph zone claims he was speeding home because he was bursting for the toilet.
Omar Haq, who owns two businesses – one being a car garage and the other an accident management company – was slapped with five penalty points and a £375 fine after driving his Mercedes S-Class at “excessive speed” on July 2 last year on the M77.
A second man, Qasim Mohammed, 29, also admitted he was in a rush home on the same date and drove his car at “excessive speed”, at the same place, and was handed the same sentence yesterday at Paisley Sheriff Court.
