Uninsured lawyer escapes jail term
Nov 18 04
A lawyer who wrote off his uninsured £30,000 Porsche has managed to avoid a jail sentence.
Michael McNiven had been banned just weeks earlier when he was handed a four year ban for his third drink-driving offence.
When he was arrested following a single-vehicle accident in Peeblesshire, police discovered he had no car insurance and had already been disqualified.
However, while Mr McNiven now faces being struck off by the Law Society of Scotland, he was found not guilty of driving with excess alcohol and avoided a jail term.
He will serve 80 hours of community service and is banned for a further nine months.
