Corsham man sentenced for drug driving

A Corsham man has been sentenced after pleading guilty to drug driving.

Jack Partington, 24, of Glebe Way, Corsham, appeared at Salisbury Magistrates Court on March 15 and pleaded guilty to three counts of drug driving.

Partington was arrested after he was found unresponsive inside his vehicle by residents in Hatton Way, Corsham, at lunchtime on September 3. There was a strong smell of cannabis coming from the vehicle and a drug wipe was carried out which tested positive for both cannabis and cocaine.

He was disqualified from driving for three years, fined £775 and ordered to pay a £310 surcharge.
