Disqualified driver caught behind wheel twice in nine days

A disqualified driver from Douglas will be sentenced next month after being caught behind the wheel twice in nine days.

29-year-old Callum Duane Clarke, of Berrywoods Avenue, appeared at Douglas Courthouse earlier this week. 

Clarke was spotted driving on Lakeside Road in Douglas on October 4th - on October 13th he was caught again, this time in Governors Hill. 

On both occasions he had no insurance - on the latter had taken the Ford Escort he was driving without the owner's consent. 

Clarke pleaded guilty to five offences - the court heard he was disqualified because he'd failed to retake his driving test after a previous ban. 

He'll be sentenced on November 13th - there was no application for bail and he was remanded at the Isle of Man Prison.
