A motorcyclist's been banned from driving for a drink drive collision in Swindon.
It happened in Dorcan around 5.30pm on July 14th - when a motorcycle was involved in a collision with a car.
60 year-old Clifford Reynolds, of Haven Close in Stratton St Margaret provided a roadside breath test which showed he was over the legal limit.
He was arrested and charged with drink driving - after appearing in court he was banned from driving for 20 months and fined £200.
