A magistrates court in the city has decided to take away the driving licence of the 18-year-old newly qualified driver who was clocked doing almost three times the speed limit in Malaga on 24 March. The youth will not be allowed to drive for eight months. In addition, the court ordered him to pay a 1,200-euro fine for an offence against road safety.

Only a week after obtaining his licence, the individual was snapped by a speed camera while driving a Seat León on Avenida de Valle-Inclán. Despite the 50km/h limit, the car was going at 140km/h.
