A MAN will appear in court after allegedly preventing a driving instructor and his learner driver go past his home.
The stand off happened at around 5.30pm on Wednesday (October 1) as a learner driver tried to perform a three-point turn on Kings Road, Chelmsford, at a spot frequently used by driving instructors.
A police spokeswoman said: "Michael Sawyer, 39, of Kings Road, was arrested and later charged with a public order offence of wilfully obstructing a highway and criminal damage to a police vehicle.
"He was released on bail to appear at Chelmsford Magistrates' Court on Friday, October 17."
