A 60-year-old man who drove while disqualified and uninsured has been sentenced to 36 weeks in prison.

Dean Woodley was arrested in Bury St Edmunds on February 15, on suspicion of driving offences.

Woodley, of Millars Close in Walsham-le-Willows, was later charged with driving while disqualified and driving without insurance.

He was sentenced to 26 weeks in prison at Ipswich Magistrates' Court on Wednesday, March 30, with a further 10 weeks for activating a previous suspended prison sentence for driving while disqualified, which was previously given to Woodley at the same court on December 4 last year.

Woodley was also disqualified from driving for 44 months.
