Nagra, of Kirkistown Close, Alvaston, Derby, confirmed he was the driver responsible and pleaded guilty to the speeding.

He stated he accepted the consequences of his actions and that he was driving at an unacceptable speed because he was late for a work meeting.

Magistrates fined Nagra £290 and ordered him to pay £35 costs and a £29 victim surcharge.

Nagra’s licence was also endorsed with six points.
