Two men accused of dangerous driving on the M1 motorway have appeared before Drogheda District Court this morning following a fuel protest yesterday.<\/p>\n
22-year-old Aaron Goss with an address at Ballymakellet, Ravensdale, Co Louth and 29-year-old Ryan Quinn of Dobbin Road, Richill, Co Armagh were both charged with dangerous driving on the M1 at Braganstown, Co Louth on 13 April.<\/p>\n
Inspector Kevin Toner of Drogheda garda station gave evidence of arrest, charge and caution before Judge Nicola Andrews today.<\/p>\n
He told the court that garda\u00ed were called to an incident of alleged dangerous driving on the motorway at Braganstown, Castlebellingham, of such a manner that it “caused a danger to other road users”.<\/p>\n
He said the accused were arrested at 7pm.<\/p>\n
He added there was no garda objection to bail subject to conditions including that the defendants commit “no further offence”.<\/p>\n
Defence solicitor Paddy Goodwin replied: “There’s no problem with that.”<\/p>\n
Judge Nicola Andrews remanded both men on bail to appear again before Drogheda District Court on 11 May.<\/p>\n
The two men walked out of the courthouse to applause from a small group of supporters who had gathered outside.<\/p>\n
