The court heard from the prosecutor that the 27-year-old had failed to identify the driver of a Honda Civic who was alleged to have been guilty of an offence to police in Tenbury Wells, Worcestershire, on June 27.
Wooles, of Orchard Close in Bishopstone, Herefordshire, was fined £660 for the offence and disqualified from holding or obtaining a driving licence for six months, with magistrates saying a ban was obligatory due to repeat offending.
He was also ordered to pay prosecution costs of £90 and a £264 victim surcharge, which is used to help fund services supporting victims of crime.
