By Larisa Brown PUBLISHED: 13:22 EST, 7 January 2013 | UPDATED: 02:37 EST, 8 January 2013 A driver who advertised on Facebook for a volunteer to take his speeding penalty points has been jailed. Scott Woodburn, 32, paid Daniel Baggaley, 26, £250 to admit his speeding offence so he could escape being banned from driving, Highway officials said today. South Yorkshire Safer Roads Partnership said his five-month sentence given to him last month 'will send a warning to anyone who would consider anything so irresponsible'. Jailed: Scott Woodburn was caught speeding on the A61 Halifax Road in Sheffield, pictured, but asked a friend to take his points so he wouldn't be banned from driving
