An Aberystwyth woman who appeared in court to admit being in charge of vehicle at Aberystwyth University with drugs in her system has been banned from the road by magistrates for a year.

Phoebe Williams, of 27 Aberystwyth Bunkhouse, appeared before Aberystwyth Magistrates’ Court on 18 September.

The court heard that the 34-year-old was found in charge of a motor vehicle at Rosser Halls of residence on Aberystwyth University’s Penglais campus on 9 April this year.

Laboratory testing showed that Williams has cannabis in her blood exceeding the specified limit.

Magistrates disqualified Williams from driving for 12 months and handed her a fine of £80.

She must also pay costs to the Crown Prosecution Service of £85.
