A Blaenau Ffestiniog man has been banned from the road for three years after admitting drug driving.

David Reynolds, of 44 Fron Fawr, appeared before Caernarfon Magistrates’ Court on 5 October.

The court heard that the 45-year-old was stopped while driving on the A5 in Conwy on 25 July this year.

Tests showed that Reynolds had cannabis in his system exceeding the specified limit.

Magistrates disqualified Reynolds from driving for 36 months and handed him a fine of £400.

He must also pay prosecution costs of £85 and a surcharge to fund victim services of £160.
