Wilson was the only person in the car and a small bag of herbal cannabis was found under the driver’s seat.
He said he had bought it for £20 and it was for his own personal use.
Imposing the community service District Judge, Mr Mervyn Bates, said the accumulation of drugs offences on Wilson’s record was concerning.
