A drug driver tested positive for cannabis after he was seen speeding in his work's Renault van. Martin Bramley, 45, of Helston Drive, Strelley, who had been in a driving job for ten months, was stopped on the A487, Porthmadog, in Wales, after 5am on November 8, 2022.

Nottingham Magistrates' Court heard the van accelerated away and travelled over the 50mph speed limit at 62 mph.
Bramley did stop and and a drugs test tested positive for cannabis. Bramley pleaded guilty at court on Tuesday (February 21) to drug driving and speeding and was fined £66, ordered to pay costs of £85 and a victim surcharge of £26. A driving ban was imposed for 12 months.
