A desperate motorist tried to escape a speeding fine by blowing up the roadside camera which snapped him, a court heard on Wednesday.

Engineer Craig Moore, 28, took the drastic action because he feared he would lose his job as a result of the ticket.

He returned to the roadside camera in the Manchester area and used explosive material, once used to make bombs and now common in the welding industry, to destroy the device.
