Permalink 'Nose blow' driver case dropped

A businessman who claimed he was fined by police for blowing his nose while driving has had the case against him dropped. Michael Mancini said he had been given a fixed penalty notice after using a handkerchief while his van was stationary in traffic in Ayr. The 39-year-old refused to pay the £60 fine and the case had been expected to be heard by a court. But prosecutors said no further action would be taken.
