  Michael Martin McGee, a 51-year-old man, was stopped while driving at Magheraoarty, Gortahork, County Donegal, on 9 May 2025 at 7.40pm.

The case was heard at Falcarragh District Court, where his solicitor said he was completing a short errand after a water supply problem affected his animals. On 21 January 2026 the judge fined him €500, allowed four months to pay, and did not disqualify him from driving.
