Driving Under Influence Charges Against Fisherman

Harry McLean Laing Dud, 53, a South Africa born fisherman, was fined E10 at Coffs Police Court for driving a motor vehicle under liquor influence. He pleaded guilty after officers observed him driving in Camperdown Street, Coffs Jetty, unable to operate gears and smelling strongly of alcohol. He had held a fishing license for a few months and owned a truck for six days. The court considered his good character and lack of prior offenses in imposing the penalty.
