AN OBAN man has been banned from driving for three years.
Gavin MacColl, of 5 Lorn Avenue, Dunollie, also received a £600 fine and will have to carry out 225 hours of unpaid work.
The 35-year-old pleaded guilty at Oban Sheriff Court on Tuesday to driving dangerously through George Street, Oban, on January 2 of this year by driving too fast, losing control and colliding with a bollard, narrowly avoiding a collision with a pedestrian.
