A COMPUTER engineer has escaped a driving ban after being caught
speeding at up to 120mph.
Cambridge magistrates fined 23-year-old Jonathan Mulley £400 but decided
not to disqualify him after he admitted exceeding the 70mph limit on the
A11 at Great Abington by up to 50mph.
The driver, from Arlesey, Bedfordshire, was followed by police in his
Honda Civic on the northbound carriageway on the morning of July 7 and
clocked at between 100 and 120mph, the court was told.
Sandeep Kainth, representing the mobile computer worker who drives
30,000 miles a year, argued that he would lose his job and be unable to
pay his mortgage if he was banned.
In addition to the fine, Mulley was ordered to pay court costs of £35
and had six points placed on his licence.
