A DUDLEY man has been hit with a hefty court bill after admitting two counts of driving a car while a child passenger under three was not wearing a seatbelt.
Dumitru Dragos Florescu, of Stourbridge Road, pleaded guilty to two charges and was hit with a £360 court bill.
Court documents say the 32-year-old had been driving a Renault Megane on Pedmore Road, Dudley, while carrying a child passenger in the rear who was not wearing an appropriate seatbelt on August 23 last year.
He was fined £200 in total and ordered to pay costs of £80 plus an £80 surcharge to fund victim services when sentenced at Dudley Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday June 7.
