Zygimantas Simonvicius, 29, appeared at Falkirk Sheriff Court last Thursday having admitted drink driving in David’s Loan, Bainsford, on April 2 last year. He gave a reading of 112 microgrammes of alcohol in 100 millilitres of breath, when the legal limit is 22 microgrammes.
Representing himself – through an interpreter – Simonvicius had only completed 43 of the 180 hours of unpaid work he had received as punishment for his crime.

She revoked the community payback order Simonvicius, 61 Stewart Road, Falkirk, had been placed on and fined him £840 to be paid back at a rate of £100 per month.
