A CHRISTMAS Eve drive to Southend and subsequent crash, in a car which he did not have permission to drive, resulted in a teenager being fined £400.
William John Megson, 19, of 146 Ralston Road, Campbeltown, pleaded guilty to a charge of taking and driving away without consent and a further charge of having no insurance in Burnside Street and on the Learside Road, at Campbeltown Sheriff Court last Thursday.
In addition Sheriff Ruth Anderson QC banned Megson from the road for six months.
