AN Innerleithen man who admitted a dangerous driving charge has been banned from the road for one year and fined £200 at Selkirk Sheriff Court.

Ryan Wood, of Craig Terrace, pleaded guilty to travelling at excessive speed on the A72 between Cardrona and Innerleithen at Dirtpot Corner on March 30.

The 21-year-old was told he will need to re-sit the extended driving test when the ban expires.
