A motorcyclist rode at 94mph in a 60mph zone on a north-east road during rush-hour traffic.
Paul Taylor, 58, was riding his motorbike on the B979 between Netherley and Stonehaven on June 25 last year when he came to the attention of police.
Aberdeen Sheriff Court heard that Taylor was overtaking vehicles during the evening rush-hour and was caught on a police speed gun riding 34mph above the speed limit.

He apologised to the court and said he would be more attentive in future.
