A DRIVER caught behind the wheel after smoking cannabis was more than three times over the limit.
Tyler Brennan, 26, of West Torbain, Kirkcaldy, appeared at Dunfermline Sheriff Court.
He admitted that on October 1, in Station Road, Cardenden, he drove a car having consumed excess drugs.
Depute fiscal Jill Currie said that at 6.50pm, Brennan’s car was stopped by police on an unrelated matter and the offence came to light.
Defence solicitor Aime Allan said: “He’d smoked cannabis five or six hours before and didn’t think he would be over the limit. He’s now stopped taking cannabis.”
Sheriff Martin Edington banned Brennan from driving for a year and fined him £285.
