Man Caught Smashing Drug-Drive Limit in Herne Bay
John Reddyhoff Over the Limit by Five Times
John Reddyhoff, 36, of Strode Park Road, Herne Bay, was hauled before Maidstone Magistrates’ Court on 23 February 2022. He admitted driving with Benzoylecgonine levels way over the legal limit on 8 October 2021.
Blown Clean Away by the Legal Limit
Reddyhoff’s blood showed 253 microgrammes of Benzoylecgonine per litre—more than five times the legal limit of 50 microgrammes. This dangerous blunder saw him banned from the roads for three years.
Fined and Banned
- Three-year driving disqualification
- £300 fine
- £34 victim surcharge
- £85 court costs
A costly lesson for Reddyhoff, who faces a lengthy break from behind the wheel after this serious hit to public safety.
