Musician not disqualified after driving at 187km/h
Peter Wilson, aged 42, aka Duke Special, had been charged with dangerous driving on the M1 at Gibstown, Co Louth, on Aug 22 last year, but Judge Flann Brennan was told yesterday gardaí would accept a guilty plea to the offence of careless driving.
Wilson, from Lomond Avenue, Belfast, was driving on the northbound carriageway when gardaí on routine patrol saw him “driving at a constant speed of 170kph and at 187kph at one stage,” Garda Inspector Brendan Cadden told Dundalk District Court.
