No he wasnt thank ****. Thanks Clubman. Was looking around and think they only would look at it majorly if harm was caused or if he got charged with more than one offence.

I think it will come down to if the charge shows up on his garda cert. If it does I'd say he has no hope, but if the garda cert comes back clean then I'd say he will be ok (personal opinion and NOT deffo the correct information).
