A young woman driving to work in North Cork at seven o’clock on a Sunday morning feared for her life because of the dangerous driving of a young farmer who drove after her – even when she turned around and went in the opposite direction.

29-year-old Darragh O’Keeffe of Ballinguile, Churchtown, Mallow, County Cork, pleaded guilty to endangerment and dangerous driving at Churchtown.
