Mrs Justice Hogg (retd.).
Un-named judge at York crown court and the road-rage twat whose conviction he quashedQuoteDISABLED Yorkshire pensioner who admitted assaulting a cyclist in a road rage incident has had his driving ban overturned, and says he pleaded guilty to the charge only because he was going on holiday.Brian McDonald, 77, who says he is “no road-rage pensioner” was given a 12-month driving ban after pleading guilty to assaulting a 26-year-old cyclist last month.Scarborough Magistrates’ Court heard Mr McDonald had called the police after an altercation with a cyclist, and needed hospital treatment for an injured finger.Mr McDonald’s driving ban was quashed after he took his case to York Crown Court last week.Mr McDonald, of Doncaster, said: “I was very upset by it all - the only reason I pleaded guilty was because I thought it was a minor offence.“They were talking about having a trial in September, but I go away with my wife to Spain then and we go every year.“I just wanted it over with - I thought I would just get a fine of about £75.“My wife and I were very upset by it because we are both disabled and need the car to be able to get to hospital appointments.”Magistrates also ordered him to pay a £220 fine, £85 in court costs and £150 compensation to the cyclist.But when York Crown Court overturned the ruling, he was told he would not have to pay anything to the man he was convicted of assaulting.However, the assault conviction still stands.www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/crime/i-m-no-road-rage-pensioner-says-77-year-old-after-his-driving-ban-is-overturned-1-7979007#ixzz4COzA2I4W
