Foreigner takes Company Car, without Permission, Crashes and Gets off with a Fine. Twenty-three-year-old Tomas Urbitis careered into the side of his victim after failing to spot its indicator light was on and as its driver was attempting to navigate a left hand turn at Drummond Otra, Carrickmacross, Co Monaghan on June 8, 2024.

He didn’t have a licence at the time, but he does have a licence now and he is hoping to learn to drive, but he accepts he didn’t have insurance and he shouldn’t have taken the car.”

Judge Finnegan consequently fined Urbitis €350 each for no insurance, careless driving and the unauthorised taking while “taking into consideration” the other remaining charges.

In doing so, Judge Finnegan warned him: “Hopefully it is a lesson learned Tomas.”
