A TUMBLE man must pay more than £1,000 after driving a car without insurance or an MOT.

Llanelli Magistrates’ Court heard Jonathan Robert Edwards, of Banc y Gors, Upper Tumble, was driving a Vauxhall Astra, in Heol Ddu, Drefach, with no insurance in force covering the use of the vehicle and without an MOT.
