A VAUXHALL Corsa driver from Hereford has been ordered to pay hundreds after he was caught out with a dodgy tyre.

Frank Nelson Miley was proven guilty of one count of using a motor vehicle with a tyre with the ply or cord exposed at a single justice procedure hearing at Worcester Magistrates’ Court earlier this month.

The court heard that the 25-year-old had been caught out after getting behind the wheel of a Vauxhall Corsa in Leominster’s Bargates on August 25 last year.
