The court heard from the prosecutor that the 38-year-old had been caught out while behind the wheel of a Citroen on the A456 at Burford, Tenbury Wells, on February 10.
The car was in such a dangerous condition that its use involved a danger of injury to other people, the court was told.
Roberts, of Ryelands Road, Leominster, was fined £440 and received three penalty points for the offence.
He was also ordered to pay prosecution costs of £90 and a £176 victim surcharge, which is used to help fund services supporting victims of crime.
