An ambulance worker has been charged with faking her boss’s signature on an official form in a bid to dodge a speeding ticket.
Susan Milby, 39, is alleged to have completed an application for exemption under the 1984 Road Traffic Regulation Act.
The provision relates to a notice of intended prosecution served on her regarding a speeding offence allegedly committed on July 4 last year.
She was caught speeding on the A9 in Perthshire, approximately nine miles south of the trunk road’s junction with the A889 road to Dalwhinnie.
The single charge against her alleges at the Scottish Ambulance Service’s ambulance control centre at Norseman House, South Queensferry, she filled in the form, using the name of her manager, James McGuire, forged his signature on it and posted it to the North Safety Camera Unit in Dundee “in an attempt to evade being prosecuted” for the speeding offence.
Milby, of Long Crook, South Queensferry, was not present to answer the allegation at Dundee Sheriff Court.
Solicitors wrote to the court on her behalf asking for the case to be continued without plea and Sheriff George Way continued the case.
