A COUPLE of men have been sentenced following an incident of dangerous driving at Black Rock Sands beach in Gwynedd on February 12.
Thomas Freeman, 21, and Joseph Rainbow, 20, both from the Wiltshire area, appeared at Caernarfon Magistrates’ Court on November 28.
They were driving a Mini Cooper vehicle dangerously during the incident in question at the beach.
Freeman and Rainbow both admitted a charge of driving a motor vehicle dangerously.
Both men received a 16-month driving ban and 100 hours of unpaid work each.
PC Kieran Rowlands said: “Dangerous driving at Morfa Bychan is understandably a local concern and causes significant demand on officers each year.
“This is a public area which families, residents and tourists should be able to enjoy without the fear of anti-social driving.
“We will respond to any reports of inappropriate behaviour and take proportionate action against those found to be driving dangerously.”
Anyone with concerns about dangerous or anti-social driving in your area can report them to North Wales Police via its website, or by calling 101.
