A taxi driver has paid a heavy price for attempting to pervert the course of justice by trying to blame others for his speeding convictions.
Horatiu Balea, 33, was caught on two occasions whilst driving his licensed cab in the Crawley, West Sussex area. He then tried to lay the blame on two other drivers, one in Spain and one in Romania, but a simple check of the speed camera photos revealed that Balea was indeed the driver.
