    Tattoo man convicted of drink driving

    Just spotted this not sure if its been posted elsewhere

    Hearts' Ryan Stevenson banned for drink driving
    Published: 29 April 2013
    By Billy Paterson

    HEARTS midfielder Ryan Stevenson was criticised by a Sheriff for his "arrogance" after he was caught driving nearly three times over the limit.

    The 28-year-old - who was in the Scotland squad for a 2011 friendly against Cyprus - was caught when police received an anonymous tip-off that he drove after a drinking session in Elliots nightclub in Prestwick, Ayrshire.

    Stephanie Blair, prosecuting, told Ayr Sheriff Court that officers stopped Stevenson nearby at 2.30am and detected a strong smell of alcohol from his breath.

    The former Ayr United player who stays in Dundonald, near Troon, admitted driving on April 7 in Station Road, Prestwick with a breath count of 96mg - the legal limit is 35mg.

    His solicitor, Elaine Rae, said: "Mr Stevenson expresses genuine remorse in respect of his actions.

    "He had been in Elliots and then was guilty of a gross error of judgement."

    After he failed the roadside breath test in his Jaguar XKR, Stevenson was taken to Ayr where he was held in custody overnight.

    The previous day he had captained Hearts to a 4-2 victory over Ross County.

    Sheriff Desmond Leslie banned Stevenson from driving for 20 months and fined him £1500.

    The Sheriff told him: "It seems to me that given what you do for a living, this was particularly stupid on your part - whether as a result of arrogance or a sense of just doing what you want to do, I don't know.

    "But on this occasion you presented yourself in a way which was certainly not a role model."
    So quality comments from the sheriff

    They will be looking to cut costs on anyone they think they can't make money from.

    What an idiot. Given the amount of awareness on DUI crimes these days, a 20 month ban and a small fine seems quite lenient. What about a couple hundred hours in community service?

    Tbh 20 months is more than you usually get unless he failed to provide ( which is not the case) a years ban is usually the outcome with a fine between 300 and 500 quid.

    Looks like the sheriff has made an example of him. That would be the max for that sort of reading (unless he has previous for drink driving)

    Did they not give him pelters before when he left for the crime of not having his contract honoured? A few months later when he returned, tail between legs I must add, the were queuing up to welcome the hero upon his return. Given the puddle drinkers' previous form, why will this incident be any different? He'll be a hero again to them in a few weeks time and all will be forgiven. Tramps!
