A Matelot man is disqualified from driving for one year and fined $5,000 in connection with two charges stemming from a road traffic accident that occurred on September 30th, 2023.
Reggie Wilson, of St Helena Village, Matelot, who pleaded guilty to careless driving and driving without a certificate of insurance, was disqualified by Magistrate Nanette Forde-John when he appeared virtually at the Sangre Grande Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday.
Wilson was also fined $3,500 for failing to have a certificate of insurance and $1,500 for careless diving.
He was charged by PC Walcott, of the Matelot Police Station, who conducted further enquiries into a road traffic accident report made by a woman.
According to the police report, at 4.40 pm on September 30, 2023, Wilson was driving east along Samuel Street, Matelot, and upon reaching the vicinity of a bar, came into contact with another vehicle driven by the woman. The impact damaged both vehicles.
Following investigations, it was discovered that Wilson did not have a valid certificate of insurance.
He was later charged with the offences.
