A salesman who fitted a radar-jamming device to his car to avoid speeding fines has been spared jail.

Ben Kitto, 41, from Scarborough, raised police suspicion when he was caught on camera speeding on the A64 in North Yorkshire on June 30 last year. The police radar initially recorded an error, eventually measuring 53mph.
