A 43-year-old Bay Roberts man has been convicted of flight from police and dangerous driving stemming from an unusual incident in Spaniard’s Bay back in April.
Michael Effort was reported to be speeding on the main highway through town on a side-by-side ATV. He failed to pull over for police and forced other vehicles off the road to avoid colliding with him.
Effort was convicted on December 6. He received a two-year, Canada-wide driving prohibition, and an 18-month probation order.
