A banned motorist was caught behind the wheel despite not having retaken his test.
Jude Sneddon, of Heather Crescent in Pulrose, appeared before Deputy High Bailiff Rachael Braidwood at Douglas Courthouse.
The 33-year-old admitted driving while disqualified after he was caught on Westmoreland Road in Douglas on March 13 - he'd been banned last July for six months but hadn't retaken his test.
The court heard he was serving a suspended prison sentence and has several previous convictions for driving while disqualified.
He was bailed in the sum of £500 and will appear for sentencing on May 23.
