A Pencader man has been fined for driving without due care and attention.

Llanelli Magistrates’ Court heard on 6 January that Gwynfryn Hughes Pendle, of 5 Bro Nantlas, Gwyddgrug, was driving a VW Caddy on the B4459 at Pencader on 13 August.

The 68-year-old was caught on dashcam “obstructing the highway” while a car tried to pass and then pulling out preventing the car from passing.”

The footage showed Pendle slow down and drive extremely slowly, and later turning into a junction on the left to carry out a U turn directly in front of the car nearly causing a collision.

Magistrates fined Pendle £200 and handed him nine penalty points.

He must also pay £130 costs and an £80 surcharge.
