Dangerous Driving at Forfar Sheriff Court. The client was charged with dangerous driving by driving at an excessive speed on the A90 while overtaking other vehicles. He was facing a mandatory 1 year ban and a re-sit order. We were able to persuade the Crown to accept a lower speed and reduce the charge to Carless Driving. The client instructed us to tender a plea to the lesser charge of Careless Driving. He had 9 live points and was now facing disqualification under totting-up provisions for a period of no less than 6 months which he could not afford. The Court granted our request for a short-term ban of 3 months.
