A barrister representing the defendant said his client had been driving for ten years with a clear record.
He explained that at the time Quinn had just got married and on honeymoon he spent more than he thought and was overdrawn.
The lawyer added that Quinn had moved in with his wife and was written to by the insurance company at his previous address. He was now insured.
