A DRIVER has been fined and banned for speeding on a motorway.
William Lowe, aged 28, from Duntisbourne Abbots, was caught at 66mph in a 50mph zone on the M5 northbound at junction 16 for Almondsbury on December 9 last year.
This contravened a temporary speed restriction set by South Gloucestershire Council.
Lowe pleaded guilty to the offence under the single justice procedure on June 5 at Bath Magistrates Court.
He was fined £384 with a £154 surcharge plus £110 in costs - a total of nearly £650 - and was banned from driving for six months due to repeat offending.
