A PENSIONER who drove the wrong way down a dual carriageway into oncoming traffic has been banned from the road for 16 months.
Catherine Nicoll, 84, was also fined £400 and ordered to resit the extended driving test before she will be allowed to return to the road.
Nicoll, from Pitlochry, Perthshire, admitted driving her Honda Jazz dangerously on the A9 Perth to Inverness trunk road, near Ballinluig, on June 1.
Perth Sheriff Court heard she drove northbound against the flow of traffic in the fast lane of the southbound carriageway and caused another driver to swerve to avoid a head-on crash.
