MEREDYDD HUGHES, Britain's most senior traffic policeman, has been slated for wasting court time after he failed to answer a speeding charge yesterday.
Hughes, 49, the was due to appear at Wrexham Magistrates' Court charged with driving at 90mph in a 60mph zone. Sources say the high-flying copper pleaded for an adjournment as he couldn't find a solicitor to represent him. Funny that.
Supersonic Hughes, who was allegedly caught on camera on the A5, has admitted committing two speeding offences in the past and having six penalty points, despite being one of the UK's strongest critics of speeding motorists.
