The driver was stopped on the A477 between Carew and Milton
A 22- YEAR-OLD Tenby man who drove after taking cocaine has lost his licence for a year.
Zachary Steele of Tudor Way appeared at Haverfordwest Magistrates Court on Tuesday, May 11.
He admitted driving with above the legal limit of a controlled drug in his blood.
The court heard that a test showed 176 microgrammes of benzoylecgonine, the major metabolite for cocaine. The legal limit is 50.
Steele had been stopped by police on November 8 as he drove on the A477 between Milton and Carew.
In addition to the 12-month driving ban, he was fined £120 and ordered to pay £85 costs and a £34 surcharge.
