Cocaine motorist Jonathan Pearson from Thatcham drove while disqualified…

A motorist was caught driving while disqualified – after taking cocaine.

To make matters worse, Jonathan Pearson had no insurance, either.

The 33-year-old of Peers Place, Thatcham, appeared in the dock at Reading Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday, August 13.

Pearson, who was legally represented by Adonis Daniel, admitted driving a Volkswagen Golf on the Broadway in Thatcham on Monday, March 11, when the amount of the Class A-controlled drug in his system exceeded the prescribed limit.

He also admitted driving without insurance and driving while disqualified on the same occasion.

Magistrates ordered pre-sentence reports.

Pearson was meanwhile released on unconditional bail and made subject to an interim driving ban.
