He admitted he did not have insurance, a licence or a test certificate.

Ross did not appear in court and a police officer said she believed she could connect him to the charges.

District Judge Greg McCourt convicted the defendant in his absence.

On hearing this was the defendant’s seventh conviction for a no insurance offence the judge issued an arrest warrant.
