A profoundly deaf criminal who tried to hit two police officers with his car has been jailed for five years.
George Drinnan, 39, was originally charged with attempted murder for the attack in Americanmuir Road, Dundee, in February 2023.
This was reduced to assault to the danger of life at a trial at the High Court in Stirling.
Drinnan's defence lawyer said his deafness would cause him difficulty in jail, however, judge Lady Tait said that prison was the "only appropriate sentence".
She said: "The court must seek to deter such offending behaviour."
