A man who took a job as a delivery driver despite being banned from the road for life has been jailed.
Alan Scott had been given several lifetime bans from driving over 57 offences before he was caught behind the wheel in Perth in July.
The 30-year-old was jailed for eight months after admitting driving while disqualified for the fifth time.
Perth Sheriff Court heard Scott had "something akin to an addiction" to driving.
Police were informed that Scott was driving while disqualified, and caught him driving off from the Marmaris takeaway in Perth on 31 July.
Solicitor Kris Gilmartin said Scott "ought to know better", having been jailed for this offence before.
