A DRIVER has denied speeding at 76mph.

Last Wednesday at Alloa's Justice of the Peace Court, Ewan Lundie failed to show for his intermediate diet.

The 54-year-old is accused of breaking the 60mph limit on the A876 northbound near Kilbagie Mill on February 15 last year.

Lundie's lawyer, Ms Maitland, told the court that the defence maintained a plea of not guilty and was ready to proceed to trial on February 15.

Lundie, of Tintock Place in Dullatur, was ordered to reappear then.
