Claimed he could not see due to sun

After causing a road traffic collision a 37-year-old man claimed he did not see the other vehicle because of the low sun in the sky.

Gerard Thompson, Whitehall Gate, Lurgan, had originally been charged with dangerous driving on April 18.

But after representations by his solicitor to the prosecution service this was reduced to driving without due care and attention for which he was fined £150 and given six points.
