A 35-year-old man pleaded guilty to driving under the influence yesterday in Magistrates? Court. Ross Weber of Winton Hill Lane, Hamilton Parish, apologised to the court for the offence.

Crown counsel Shade Subair told the court that Weber disobeyed a stop sign when he was driving along Frog Lane, in Devonshire.

When the officers stopped him they noticed he was unsteady on his feet. Acting Senior Magistrate Carlisle Greaves fined him $1,000 and disqualified him from driving all vehicles for 12 months.
