A MOTORIST has had his licence endorsed after he admitted speeding on a road near Oswestry.
Shane Langford was clocked driving a Ford Transit van on the A5 Nesscliffe bypass on March 10, this year, at more than 60mph.
Although the dual carriageway has a 70mph speed limit for most vehicles, this is reduced to 60mph for vehicles weighing more than two tonnes.
