An Onchan man will appear in court next month charged with ignoring traffic lights - but a careless driving allegation against him has been dropped.

Darren James Challis of Laurel Avenue appeared before Deputy High Bailiff James Brooks at Douglas Courthouse.

The 52-year-old hasn't yet entered a plea to failing to comply with traffic lights on July 22.

Mr Brooks adjourned the case and Mr Challis will appear again on November 11.
