Taylor was fined £160 and ordered to pay £60 in costs and a £64 victim surcharge.
His driving record was endorsed with three penalty points.
The court heard that he faced exceptional hardship as he relied on his licence for work, is the sole breadwinner, and his income covers the household bills and mortgage.
He must pay the full amount by August 12.
The offence took place on January 16 this year.
