Magistrates were told a driving disqualification would cause “extreme hardship” to his companies and their employees.

Laying it on a bit thick there. Surely one of his lackies can run him aboot! :lol:

My father-in-law got a two week ban for pretty much the same thing. The main reason his ban was so light was because the guy prosecuting him kept talking over him and being a nob... the old judge properly took his side then and it really wound the prosecutor up!

When his masterplan comes into fruition he wont have to drive all over the place to these big housing complexes hes building as he'll just be able to walk down Warwick Road. I mean why would he need all these prime building areas when hes got his minions keeping a nice bit of flood land open for him ;)

Annoys me when business people use the excuse that the business will suffer, despite the fact he already had 9 points he should drive within the limit if it meant that much.

No excuses

Pleading hardship works quite a lot in some cases.

I hear 60% of the time, it works every time.

Greg Abbott made the same excuse when he got banned. The club did suffer but not because of his ban but because he was s**** :(

Steven Graham, representing Story, said he knew the road well and the speed limit, describing the offence as “a momentary lapse of concentration”.
"Marcia Reid-Fotheringham, one of the magistrates, asked Story if he could employ a driver if he was banned.
He replied: “Yes, but I talk business in the car to clients and I would feel uneasy with someone in the car with me."

No wonder he lacked concentration if he was talking to clients either in the car or on the phone

No sympathy. Serial offender getting caught again, showed he doesn't give a [censored] about the law. Knowing the road is a pathetic excuse. We all know roads we drive often, but we don't know what's around the next bend from one day to the next. The road is the same, traffic never is.
