The court was told Rygiel had been banned from driving for 15 months in 2012 and for four years in 2018, both for drink-driving.
On Thursday, he pleaded guilty to driving while disqualified on December 16, 2020, making a false statement between May 1, 2017 and December 17, 2020 to obtain insurance, obstructing a police officer and having no insurance.
Charlotte Winchester, mitigating, said Rygiel had been working as warehouse co-ordinator in Elm at the time of the offences and was using the car to commute.
