A DRIVER has been banned from the roads for failing to spot an OAP pedestrian and causing her serious injury.

Mohammad Ali, of Lennox Drive, Clydebank, pleaded guilty to driving without due care and attention or consideration for others.

On July 28, 2024, at Riverside Lane, Dumbarton, he failed to keep a proper lookout for the roadway and drove through a junction while failing to give way to pedestrians.

His car collided with the 76-year-old woman who was crossing the junction.

The 40-year-old appeared at Dumbarton Sheriff Court on February 23 where he admitted the charge.

Sheriff Maxwell Hendry disqualified him from driving for one year, the minimum. He was also ordered to do 130 hours of unpaid work within 12 months.
