Colleen Gibson, of Barr’s Lane, drove through the red light on August 11, 2015, a PPS solicitor told the court. A defence solicitor said the lights, at the junction of Great James Street and Francis Street, had just turned red when she ran them and described it as a “lapse in attention.”

She received five penalty points on her licence.
