Drug driver in court
DRUG driver Desmond John Rowbotham was nervous when he appeared before Bundaberg Magistrates Court.
On December 8 about 9.40pm police pulled Rowbotham over along Heaps St.
He admitted to police he had smoked a joint almost a week before.
Tests later showed he had marijuana in his system.
Magistrate Belinda Merrin noted Rowbotham's nervousness.
"Stand up Mr Rowbotham, you're a little nervous, are you?” she asked.
Rowbotham nodded.
He pleaded guilty to drug driving, was fined $350 and lost his licence for a month.
