Magistrates ordered an all-options report into Patton’s offending when sentenced at the same court on Monday, January 9.
Patton also pleaded guilty to driving without insurance on the same day.
Mr Smith said: “You’re going to be calling for reports, all-options to be fair.”
Prosecutor Paul Anderson added: “It’s definitely a reports' case.”
