A 40-YEAR-OLD man has been sentenced for dangerous driving.

The Middlewich resident was caught by police driving 120mph in a Subaru past other vehicles and pedestrians on the A54 Station Road bypass in Winsford.

He was disqualified from driving for 20 months, ordered to complete community service, fined and issued with a 16 week electronically monitored curfew.

A Cheshire police statement said: “Driving in such a manner on public roads can have devastating consequences and cost lives, the sentence passed by the court clearly reflects this.”
