The court heard that an accident happened at High Street, Gilford, when the defendant collided with a parked car.

He had purchased the vehicle from a friend and did not have insurance.

A solicitor representing Rosiak said he had purchased the vehicle from a friend in Lurgan and was driving it home.

He explained that he intended to use it in the south and should not have been driving in this jurisdiction. He had a previous conviction for a similar offence in 2012.
