Overtook two lorries at twice his restricted speed

An ‘R’ driver who passed two lorries on the motorway at almost twice his restricted speed was banned from driving for four weeks last Wednesday at Craigavon Magistrates Court.

Kamil Dudek, Silverwood Leaves, Lurgan, admitted exceeding the 45mph limit on April 4 this year.

The court heard he had been travelling at 88mph on the M1.

Defence barrister Damien Halloran said his client had been travelling to his home on the motorway and there were two lorries in front of him.
